To run a 10KM race under 50mins.  Easier said than done!  Need to lose some weight and get some more running done!

I did a marathon on New Year's Eve and also a 100K run/walk back in September, so my goal is just to enjoy the cross country season for the meanwhile and keep my fitness up for some shorter races.

I'm looking to run more frequently, which will hopefully increase my fitness. Keep training with my club to help me become faster. Keep enjoying Parkruns. 

A few specifics are to run 1000 miles this year, and break all my PBs. :-)

PB for 10k (47 mins, very achievable)
PB for half (1.37, will struggle)
PB for marathon (3.38, this is the one I really want, but it's been on my "goal" list for 3 years!) 

 

What about you Antony?

My goal is just to finish my first marathon in less than 4 hours. Currently booked in to run Manchester Marathon in April. Seems a big goal at the moment as I've only run halfs before.

Fi Fi, I have been having technique coaching too, seems to be working though tough it is showing results. No joint pain afer longer runs...which is nice.

Looks like our goals are fairly similar Antony - let's spur each other on!

Well done!  Which one was it?  What's your next in the list?

Yes I bet you are but have you measured the route by hand on the site?  Did they have an official course measurement?  Sometimes Garmins aren't perfect!

Just had a look - seems it has been measured by someone using GRG, and it seems it came out as 12.66 miles, with a flat equivalent of 13.13 miles (not sure if the club measurement was done before or afterwards)

Looks like the flat equivalent is full distance!

Agreed, that is very annoying.

We did the Malta half marathon a couple of weeks back, and even though I'm just a plodder (did it in 2:17:28), I'd be gutted if a race was found to be 'short' after the event.

For me, it's onwards to the Chester half in May, where I want sub 2:15, with a hankering for sub 2:10 (hell, we can all dream!)
