Looby Loo 5 Mar 2:28pm, 5 Mar 2024 4,044 posts	0 Looby Loo I’ve just logged a 9:08 from a Benchmark this morning. Hope to have another go but as I missed Feb I’ll log this for now.

NordRunner 5 Mar 4:56pm, 5 Mar 2024 4,150 posts	0 NordRunner I logged March's today as 7:40, the mile benchmark from a threshold outing. It's about 40 s slower than I would hope to be but maybe I'll get a chance later in the month unless we get snow again.

About This Thread

Maintained by Fenland Flier

For encouragement and general chat about the virtual mile challenges.

It's not easy pacing a mile race whether it's virtual or real, be it on track, road, grass or trail. Go out too hard initially and struggle towards the end, go out too soft and regret your finish time.

Use this thread to record your jubilation or allow us to commiserate with you.
