Thanks. Hindsight is a bit annoying on the topic as it could have sorted so easily ages ago but oh well - no point dwelling on the past. I'm enjoying the now :)

Next attempt at 5K this Friday - also quite enjoying the "newbie" progress jumps for now.

How is everyone getting on? A last push to close out 2020?

I'm getting closer but after a 2 week break in November, have stalled a bit

Currently I'm at 20:20 for 5K. I hope I can get sub-20 before the year is out.

61.6 in June (22:24)

67.9 in Oct (and no progress through December)

I need 19:47 to hit 70%. No idea how long that will take - maybe 6 months, maybe 12, maybe never

Oh, I think I'm posting in the wrong thread.

Anyone, I hope everyone is able t close out 2020 with a small success, even if stacking the deck is required :)

Not even one attempt at 60% this year.

My current goal is to wear my trousers comfortably.

I sure we will be back at it in some form or other today.

We ran round the East Midlands Grandprix Corby 5 route today. Throughly enjoyed it in the wind and rain and not thrashing about racing the course. Ended up with a 48% WAVA.

Something to work on.

Just found this as there's the 70% equivalent on the forums page and I thought there was probably a forum for 60% too...managed a 61% 5 k this week after ten weeks of Project Joker. Now looking for a 60% 10 k - starting next week. Going to be hard work and will require a few kgs weight loss too I reckon. Current 12 month best is 55%.
