I got out again today. Finishing on 2596m off 84km. Happy with that. There’s your target

Ralphie · January 30, 2021, 5:13pm

Had a miserable 7km in wind and rain.
Miserable

Well done @Julio_Geordio, do a few longer distances as well, you’ll really enjoy it

Well done mate. I won’t make the elevation you’ve got anyway mate. I’ve 570m needed to make the cut off and my route is saying 603m

When you’re coming back down from the summit, turn around and go back up just to be sure

caulifloweredneanderthal · January 30, 2021, 6:09pm

I’ll be trying to get out of there before the shades turn up

Not looking for any particular style, just need a new pair as my current ones are worn and saw some positive recommendations for Brooks.

caulifloweredneanderthal · January 30, 2021, 7:38pm

You’ll be buying online one way or the other. Might be no harm to buy two different pairs of shoes and be prepared to send back the ones that don’t work out for you? Some of the places like Run Hub and Amphibian King might even chat to you over the phone and figure out what would work for you. I took a punt on the Brooks off Sportsshoes.com after asking a bit about them here and reading a bit online

Some great results this month lads, well done. We’ll keep it lit for February

My window for today has shut, was hoping to get out this morning but I kept waiting for the rain to fuck off and it never did

Gman · January 31, 2021, 10:43am

Some great running there lads, fair play.

Mac · January 31, 2021, 11:10am

Were you out every day?

backinatracksuit · January 31, 2021, 11:13am

Except today,
the rain is stopping, i think I’ll give the kids a half an hour of Roblox and fuck off around the block, the missus is working.

Mac · January 31, 2021, 11:14am

I love an aul run in the rain. Get an awful smug feeling thinking of the lazy fuckers staying inside, once it’s not blowing a gale as well

Juhniallio · January 31, 2021, 11:25am

Its blowing a gale as well @Mac

Mac · January 31, 2021, 11:28am

I better stay in bed so

fenwaypark · January 31, 2021, 11:37am

I could run any sort of heat and humidity. I hate rain, wind and cold. Unfortunately we have the trifecta at the moment. Im finding the motivation to get out is very low

backinatracksuit · January 31, 2021, 11:51am

I don’t mind the rain usually but it was very heavy here this morning, my nipples haven’t fully recovered from a run in the rain during the week and it was too warm for a base layer

Just did about 4K to keep the streak going

Juhniallio · January 31, 2021, 11:54am

Theres a lot to be said for getting naked after a run and dripping cold natural yogurt on your nipples. Has to be natural yogurt though.
