in5omniac Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Cheers, might try just water next weekend then, going for Pollok Parkrun as I'm up in Glasgow that weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McToot Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I just have something pretty small. Maybe a small flapjack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
in5omniac Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Did Pollok on Saturday, 23:00 dead. Lovely change of scenery from my usual (York) Parkrun and hilly to boot. Found it tough to break past the crowds at the start but all in all, I really enjoyed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cove_Sheep Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Game postponed today so out and did a 10 mile run. Longest I've done since the half marathon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

in5omniac Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Good work mate, I'm looking for sub-45s in my 10k races next year. New 5k PB today: 21:23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McVinceSCT Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 35:15 on a 9,7kms run today! Maybe it's thanks to all the beers from last week-end in Scotland! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cove_Sheep Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Blitzed my 10k PB by 48 seconds yesterday. 44:02. That just on a training run or in a race? If the former, you should be looking at 41/42 mins in a race I'd say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilser Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I got a new PB for 10k today (a training run) - did a route from the pedestrian bridge next to the Queen Elizabeth bridge in Aberdeen, up Victoria Road, round the coastal road next to the lighthouse and back down again, finishing in Duthie Park. Managed it in 51 mins 28, which is over 2 mins better than my previous 10k PB, so am well pleased. Also reached my lightest weight in about 25 years today (weighed after the run) and have now got down to a 36 inch waist after being at 37 for months. Happy days...

Scunnered Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Anyone able to give any advice? I've been eating perfectly, training like a warrior and sleeping like a baby but was still at around 11% last Sunday. It surely shouldn't be this difficult!?!? Lift more heavy things.

Yeh, just out running myself on Friday morning. I'm always slow the first half mile as i dont do a warm-up, so could easily get another 30-45 seconds off it. Will get to 40 mins within a few months. Not that bothered about my times though to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parklife Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Lift more heavy things. I do and i am. I only weigh 70kgs and have only been lifting heavy things for about 3/4 months though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parklife Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Men shouldn't weight 70kgs. This man used to weight 96 kgs. My fighting (i won't be fighting ) weight will be around 72kgs i think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
