I went and ran a local 10k race last night - mostly spurred by a goal to get myself a representative benchmark for the distance and improve my score as a result. I achieved that - and moved from sixth in Div 7 (waaaay too high for me) to fourth, level on points with third. Maybe next week :)

Well done CumbriAndy!

The last time I went for a quick mile, it turned out to be too slow by about 20-25s! 🤪

Always worth checking the division above, to see if there'll be any relegations. If not, you should find yourself close to the top if you're in fourth currently :-)

I used the virtual pacer thingy on my watch, and had it set to 7 mins/mile - so I could see how many seconds ahead I was. At times, I was just trying to preserve my 'lead'.

I did a similar thing on my watch. The plan was great, but the execution not so.

I was a bit ahead for the first 200m and then steadily dropped off in pace. Maybe the bike ride beforehand had taken too much out of me.

It's going to be close. Assuming nobody changes their times or drops out before Monday - there will be two people dropping down and both are quicker than me at at least four distances. Of the three coming up, one is quicker than me (and those coming down) over five distances. I can see myself getting stuck in fourth - unless I can find a decent 10 miler/half marathon from somewhere.

What timeframes are the gold and cobweb highlighted ones again?

Might be worth adding that onto the game guide being it's new

Well done Fetch!

About This Thread

Maintained by fetcheveryone
Start in the bottom division, and compete over seven different distances against your rivals for weekly promotion!

How It Works
1) The game takes your best times from training and racing over the last 12 months.

2) If you've got the fastest 5k in your division, you get 20 points. If you're second fastest, you get 19 points, etc.

3) Your FIVE best scores are used to calculate your total. So if your scores at each distance are 20,20,20,20,20,10,5 the lowest two are discarded, and your total points would be 100.

4) Promotion and relegation happen every Monday at midday.
