Perhaps I had better try my virtual mile over the next few days when it is not so warm. :-)

I defo find it harder to run in the heat.

Last night's session also included 800m and 400m so I'll jot those times down and maybe have a crack at bettering them once a month too.

It definitely sounds like you're training for the Jingle mile races Sombrero

I admit I prefer cooler temps for running but we get so few hot days that I am prepared to sacrifice some minutes on my virtual mile. Haven’t done it (again) normal service will resume when I’m not endurance training (I found Millie a half pro 🤣🤣)

Well done everyone

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.
