The Pretend Fitness Thread

Nobody needs that mate but it’s nice all the same.

For community games maybe, clap your kid over the line.

I guarantee if Fintan was allowed over from Flannans for the weekend it would be lovely for Tossi to pick him up and carry him the last few hundred yards, would make a lovely cover photo for the Daily Express.

Flannans hasn’t been a boarding school for the bones of a decade

I know that but normal rules don’t apply to Fintan. I picture a hogwarts type existence.

Those Asics metaruns are worth 20-30 seconds a mile over 13.1 miles, that is simply unreal, that is what £200 gets you

When has reality ever interfered with Tossy’s stories?

What time do you make today pal?

Just under 86 mins for the BC 10. Head wind out but pushing us up the hill for a finish. Happy enough with that time. Not my best but not far off.

Under 1:48. Delighted. Got into a scrap with a fat fucker between 7 and 10. The cunt wouldn’t give in. Does that ever happen to you? I was fumbling for jelly babies and caffeine tablets in my bum bag and the prick would be there again passing me. I mullered him on a hill at 9.5 and that was the last I saw of him. Cruised in the last 3 mile at 8:25. First time finishing a race with out grimacing for the photo. Full one now next Saturday

What were the conditions like

Signed up for my first marathon this year. Dublin marathon.
Have only done one half marathon, more planned this year, so far and did it in just under 1hr58m (apologies for putting up such a time on such a thread) in Clontarf late last yr. Only started to run with any regularity from Sept 2016, so was happy to even finish it.
Any guidance/tips on marathon running would be greatly appreciated

Yours I sport
