What shoes you currently wear for running ?
Heading out now… No set goal, we’ll see what the body says.
Nice and slow.
I like not having a plan. That’s how Wednesday went and it was one of my best runs this year in terms of feel and performance
Shouldn’t be a problem for our boy Tom.
Ooooffftttt
Nike Free Runs. They’re more for the gym than running.
@fenwaypark I have noticed a bit of niggle on my knee cap. Would this be linked to running? I can actually feel the sore spot right on the bone (midway up inner edge of knee cap) when I press on it, so feels more like an impact injury but I don’t recall any impacts.
IT band.
RICE, thumb up the hole, anti inflammatory medication should fix it.
Ah you could easily have bumped off a table or chair. Go for a run and see how it is.
Not that, pain would be on outside of knee if itb.
I’m babysitting today.
Tomorrow morning will be run time.
First run in the pissing rain for what seems like a long time, easy 10.5 k
Some fancy chap with the best of gear and a haircut you could set your watch to came around the corner at Ivan’s at the same time as me, he was moving much quicker than me and started building up a nice bit of distance between us, but he kept looking over his shoulder to see where I was (I told myself anyway, he wasn’t looking for anything else), I kept a steady pace (around 5:10) and tried to pay it no attention but I took satisfaction in reeling him in once it became clear he was biting off more than he could chew, I passed him with a friendly nod around Barringtons pier, I’d say it waS one of the new TFK Running clique , don’t give up mate
I’m going out to measure a kilometre
I’d never make it as far as Ivan’s and there’s no chance I could overtake someone doing a 5.10 pace for anything more than about 20 seconds
I did the km in 5:02 mins. 1.05km to be exact. 28 degrees heat at half six here. I went with the young fella. I showed him the start and the finish line. He tore away ahead of me, “grand I’ll do my own pace here”. Legs felt heavy but I had cycled 32 km in sweltering heat earlier and had cut the lawn. Got to the finish line, no sign of your man. Waited a couple of minutes. Then I saw him a few hundred yards up the road puking his ring up. He’d ran 1.3km in 6:02 and he was fucked. That’s about 4.5 mins for the Km. he missed the finish line.
He’s the man of the house now
