tipsku Apr 2023 6:49pm, 16 Apr 2023 2,841 posts	0 tipsku Congrats, Oscar. A PB is a PB, and your WAVA is probably even better because you ran your previous marathon PB 5 years ago. (which happens to be the year when I ran my last fastish marathon, too) Btw, I just realized, when looking at your race portfolio, that we have met in Dartmoor 2011. You were one of the Running Forever guys. So I can claim a fetch sticker

Dillthedog Apr 2023 7:12pm, 16 Apr 2023 4,732 posts	0 Dillthedog Great running HoD and OTG. Remember also that we aren’t getting any younger so take the PBs and good runs while you can.
Oscar the Grouch Apr 2023 7:15pm, 16 Apr 2023 5,942 posts	0 Oscar the Grouch Thanks folks. Well done, HoD. Some days the body just doesn't do what we think it should. I ran 5 miles easy on Friday with a HR that suggested I was running a tempo!
Fenland Flier Apr 2023 7:29pm, 16 Apr 2023 8,768 posts	0 Fenland Flier Well done HoD, a good time despite not being what you wanted.
