    Have fun!
    Hiw many runners?

    Did a race a few weeks back but have been resting up,some.  Intervals yesterday and today's 5 miles was harder than it should be.
    Need to get back on a training schedule.

    Damn.  35k race was crowded as fuck.  Cannot imagine another 20k thrown in.  I'd start close to up front, regardless of where they want you to queue.

    Beautiful 
    Was gonna be an off day but I ran while my son had training for an hour.
    Brutally hot and humid.

    Enjoyed it!

    Those trails look amazing Spiritual!!

    How's everyone doing? 

    I'm a month on from my last race, managed a distance of 75 miles in very muddy conditions.

    Next race is 'the autumn 100' in October. Following the river Thames path and the Ridgeway trail.

    Start a 12 week program this week aimed to pr in a November Half.
    Been running a lot buy without real focus for a bit.  Gonna get after it.
    Have a 5k in a few weeks and will sprinkle some other races in as part of training.  
    In the hot tub after a 9 mile run this AM, as I type this.
    My knees are so fucking toast. Lol.  
    Still gonna get after it.  Fuck knees.  Overrated!

    That's pretty close to what I have. I set it to run a 10k in 52minutes... and it ends in november. Not so invested in actually running it, but fun to follow a coach. 

    Then in November I'm planning to do invest more energy into one for my 21k in May.

    My "running group" also want to run a 30 to 60k trail race in January. But I have never run 30 in my life. hehe

    Hello everyone.  My running mileage has been terrible,  like a once a week 6 mile run, maybe twice, but hill work at least.  Been mountain biking a lot this summer which has still been good training for the legs, but need to be more disciplined to run at least 3 days a week.

    Me too. Will start next week. Too much to do this one.

    And tried running a 21k "slowly" this past saturday, totally wrecked me. Was not fit enough for it. And cramped up for the first time ever. Yikes.

    Cramps suuuuuuck.  A number of ways to try and prevent but once you have them it is really painful.

    2nd today in the 5k in my group.  A giant hill in the middle so my time wasn't great but I beat my time from same course last year....although was off my pr for this course. 

    The winner in the 50-59 group that I am a part of?
    16:43.  5k.  
    50 years old. 
    Jeeebus.  I don't think I've seen a 50 yr old run a 16 before.

    For a 50+ year old, 16 minutes is crazy....at least to me.
    I've been working to try and get sub 20, but haven't done it yet.  
    Maybe next year!  Lol.

    4 years this weekend since my first 100 miler... Can you believe that!?

    Haven't completed that distance since. Got another opportunity next month.

    Glad to hear you guys being active.

    16 mins 5k is totally crazy 😂 I did a 21 min treadmill 5k today

    It was painful 😂 I've been very race specific in this training block... Lots of 11 to 12 minute miles.

    I know.... Where does the time go...
