Wow, evab you certainly shifted on that one :j
krider - runs like that are tough aren't they?? But as Becky says they make you appreciate the good ones more:D
Nice park running everyone - well done on the PB's.
Good luck with Arundel tomorrow Becky and Rich; we drove through there today and I thought of you both when I saw the Castle. I hope your legs are feeling nice and strong :rotfl::rotfl:2021 MFW No.18 £9900/£10,000Mortgage at 21.07.20 £178,999 Mortgage today £150,8910 -
Have good 10kms tomorrow Rich, Becky and km on Monday.
I'm off swimming in the morning, the whole family this time it will be the first time we have taken the baby! Then down the beach in the afternoon for some more nice running.0 -
Thanks for the good wishes, guys.:D
However, it was my mistake not to take that Arundel race off the list...so no 10K tomorrow......Becky is planning a 16 miler while I do a 10 mile rhythm run.
I swapped the 10K to next week...the Sheffield BUPA thingy!
Thats pretty swift moving, evab....feeling good I take it?Gt NW 1/2 Marathon 21/2/2010 (Target=1:22:59) (6:20/mile) 1:22:47 (6:19):j:j

Any new races that need adding/amending - let me know and I'll make the necessary changes!
Black = Completed Races.
Blue = Planned Races.
The blue figures next to the results are the WAVA age grading percentage followed by the relevant world record to which the time is being compared.
With age grading everyone is on an equal footing - the score takes out any advantage/disadvantage due to age and any advantage/disadvantage due to being male/female.
So whatever your age or sex if you score 52% it is better than another person's 51% regardless of their age/sex.
So what are the scores? They are quite simply a measure of your performance compared to the person who holds the world record for that distance in your age group and of your gender.
Clearly some of the WRs are out of date, but there has to be a stable basis on which to calculate otherwise the gradings would need to be re-computed every time a WR changes.
So, in simple terms your WAVA rating is:
Your time is 4 x World Record 25.00%
Your time is 2 x World Record 50.00%
Your time is 1.5 x World Record 66.67%
Your time is 1.25 x World Record 80.00%

Well enjoy the runs anyway!
Felt really good I was waiting for the flaking to start but I felt good all the way, looked at GPS at one point and was showing as 8:39! Not for long but hey a few seconds is fine. Endorphins aplenty this evening :-)0 -
Hello!!
Am really happy with my race today - its getting better the more I think about it - 1.5 bottles of wine and a curry both of which kindly revisited me during the race and I still managed to shave off over 20 seconds on last time
Well done evab - nice running!!!
Well done to Mascott on another pb - you're really getting the hang of that course now eh!
Sorry about your bank disaster Uk!
Simply what are you running tomorrow?? Excited for another good quality long run??
I am on the bubbles so wont be going out early for my long run0 -
I'm also doing the Great North run Rich!
...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -
Didn't UK mention that curry was good for running the other day
, it certainly helped me the next day! Well done Becky x
0 -
Lol
I had Curry earlier myself so we'll see if it works tomorrow. Never did get out for a run as come the time i was ready to go out it was tipping it down. Off to Whitley bay monday for 8 miles too followed by tea and cake, should be fun.Debt free Nerd number 1122 LBM Jan 2009 Debt @ LBM £40,086.88 (14/01/09)
