Great running @Mac

Must be one of your best times at the 4.85km distance (cc @Locke )

I’m not going to look at the profile of the run, plenty of downhills I’d say.

Got injured lads so won’t be putting in a time.

Went out this morning. A rake of excuses not to do it today, but got a time logged and donation done. I must try doing hard (for me) 5kms more often because I really hate them🤣. Thought I could go quicker but didn’t have it today.

I’ll need an extension also. Badly fucked my ankle up playing stupid soccer. 5 hours in a hospital and the cunts didnt even see me. Not like I was doing much anyway, but this properly fucks me.

@caulifloweredneanderthal can you post up a direct link for @fistoffury charity please? Its fuck all in the scheme of things, but much like Faldos donation drive, if it helps someone in the name of FOF then I think we should do all we can.

Extensions granted to whoever wants them lads. Let’s say until Paddy’s Day and we can try and up the fundraising so. Lads like @TreatyStones and @Mac might even complete the full distance next time round.

Well done pal.

I’ve just donated too, but I’ve yet to receive my confirmation email. :anguished:

The extension to Paddy’s Day should give me a chance to have another crack at it.

Well done, it’s never fun when you’re running fast, if it was you’re not trying hard enough, no matter the distance.
Good pace

Yes the extension is a good idea as I’ll struggle to get a fast 5k in before end of month

Body not right at moment so I’ll try another tilt at it before Paddy’s Day. A good shock to the system.

Up yours @Mac

Lookit, if you need an asterisk beside your victory then I won’t stand in your way

Went out the other day to knock this one off. Won’t trouble the leaderboard, but the fastest I’ve gone since July. I was in relatively good shape last spring, but fatherhood began to really take hold and have been going through the motions fitness wise up until Christmas. Into a better routines of it now. Onwards and upwards. Chucked a few quid to the charity in the link as well.

First 5k here gives me 21:08
Will try to do a 5k in a couple of weeks to attack the 20 minute mark again

Your heart rate is mad

Yeah, shouldn’t have been so high so early
I’m definitely not 100% so I’m pretty happy to tough that out, I was absolutely bollixed after 6k
