  • I've got a really big race this evening.

    And nerves are starting to kick in right now. Its only 5k (3 miles) but its in my home town. This will be the 4th time I have entered it and I am really wanting to get my time to close to 25 minutes.

    Its silly really, as I have ran a lot of miles this year so far, many of which are half marathons. Yet this 3 miler this evening is the biggest of the lot to me.

    Wisht me luck! I will report my time and experiences in the morning.

    It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!




    I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

      Good luck, Rich! Do your best not to trip over your feet in front of your family, friends, old schoolmates, teachers.............

      You'll do fine!

        Just worked it out. If I keep an eye on my gps watch I have to average 8:06 minute miles.

                            Hey Richt,

                            Sorry you didn't get 25 but just think how your first 5k was and how pleased you would have felt with 26.04 then - you've come a long way I bet!

                            Was it a fast course?
