Lockdown 2021 Run Challenge

She and the Irishman abroad fella do a decent podcast each week I think. It might be every month, not sure.

Her lass is an outstanding runner, but hasn’t much interest.

That is an outstanding effort.

She’s over in Villanova on scholarship. Very different to Sonia, as you’d expect. She’s still very young - Sonia never coached her. Said it was not the way to go.

Thank you for supportive comments, lads. Running with no underpants on for the first time ever really stood to me. I was able to maintain a consistent stride pattern throughout without having to yank (that’s a “y”) my undergarments at regular intervals. I had a route in mind but was really flagging on the 9th km going up a gentle enough incline. So @Biff_Egan, I freestyled the last km and sought out the nearest hill to run down.

You sacrificed a long walk home for your art. A true warrior.

Instead of scouting the prime route for croissants, @Bandage committed to the optimal running route.

First effort at a 10k completed today. A month to knock four minutes off it is hopefully doable.

@Bandage going sub 50 for the 10km is the new @Bandage going sub 25 for the 5km. #Ibelieveinhim
