Oscar's Everyone Day

23rd June 2024
In 2021 Oscar the Grouch proposed one day each year where "we unite as a community and EVERYONE records an activity of some sort - a dog walk, a run, a swim, a ride, ski if you want...".

Sadly we lost Oscar in March, so I'd like to dedicate Everyone Day to him. Thank you for the inspiration you gave us Oscar.

brotherjohn Bloody hell that was windy! Did pretty well up until 10,  but the strong headwinds in 10,11 and 13 finished me off, so a slow finish. But pleased with the run overall in the conditions, because I absolutely hate it when it's windy, and boy was it windy today! 15th and 1st M50 Dorset Doddlers 1:16:37 1:17:28 1:20:00 1:18:47 84.69

MrMarcus Pre London marathon tester aiming for PB / 6:45 pace. Provisional time, 90 minutes 18 seconds, very happy with that in very windy conditions, not a flat out effort either so good enough. Bodes very well for London. Ipswich JAFFA RC 1:23:10 1:29:59 1:28:00 1:30:15 64.59
Mud Rocs Another irritatingly consistent half! Legs felt a bit heavy after recent training so not too bad a run - failure to crack the sub-90 means I'll have to do another one!  Holcombe Harriers 1:30:24 1:30:38 1:30:38 68.70

Vicksta Not a bad run considering a) 5 months since having a baby, and b) the wind. How was it always a headwind?? I only remember one mile (11-12) with a tail wind! Nearly lost the wll to live when turning into the wind again in the final mile! Harlow RC 1:36:55 1:46:08 1:49:39 59.58

Warndog Was very windy over there, but pleased with the result based on what level of training I've been doing. Started off a bit too quick, and went into marathon mode (7:40s) at approx 10 miles. A less gusty day, this course is a definite for a personal best. Very flat, quick course.
