riggys99 Aug 2023 11:02pm, 16 Aug 2023 2,357 posts	0 riggys99 Good time WayOfTheDodo Did mine today used the quickest mile according to Fetch from my virtual 5k Pleased with a 6:15 only two seconds slower than my fastest time this year. By virtue of getting holder since running the quickest time of the year today was however a WAVA PB for the year 😁

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.
