    Carra: 166 km
    Pablo: 30.2 km
    Norbs 23.6 km
    Bacon: 14.2km
    Saveloy: 5.1km (walking)

    It might only be walking but in my current condition it counts!

      Well done Saveloy! My running is probably not far off your walking pace

      Norbs +5km (and +6km Saturday)

      Carra: 166 km
      Norbs: 34.6km
      Pablo: 30.2 km
      Bacon: 14.2km
      Saveloy: 5.1km (walking)

      I don't think being 14st is really helping the cause. Strava has just told me that I've completed the 5k route around the block 10 times and I was pushing it today. Looked at my best run on this route and it's 3mins faster

            Mine is fat though Plod. The only plus side is that a 5k run burns 900 calories when you're fat

                  Did you use a seesaw method to see who was lightest or does one of them pack a set of scales

                        Started back on Tuesday as my back problem seems to have settled down again. Did 4.1k then and 5.9 today. Feels great to be back out. Got the buzz both days both during and after Definitely discovered, for myself, that max 2 weeks off and I can even benefit from the break and run further and longer. 2-3 weeks, I can maintain the distance I was at (for me that's somewhere between 9 and 12k. After that, I just lose distance and time.

                          Of course we used the see saw method.


                          Or alternatively, we already know from the slidey scales behind me mate's pod thing at the gym.

                              Humidity makes it really hard. How the hell do proper athletes run in places like SE Asia and the Caribbean!

                              6k this morning, feel better for it

                                Did 8 mile last night. Felt great. Ave pace was 7:37 but there were a couple of 7 minute miles in there too. Touch wood still no real re-appearing niggles (shortness of stamina and mass of blisters aside)
                                A lot of people run a race to see who is fastest. I run to see who has the most guts, who can punish himself into exhausting pace, and then at the end, punish himself even more.
