Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

So, for Seville she did 7.45mm and then "walked with purpose" - by only walking for 30 seconds your legs don't stiffen and your heart rate remains high. That averaged out at just under 8mm. So yes, run parts are a bit quicker then PMP. For my LSR yesterday, I ran at about 8 - 8.20mm when usually I'd be nearer 9, the walk breaks bought the average down to about 8.41 ish.

She has said that if you run, then do walk breaks you've already tired your legs out so it can be harder to get going again, whereas by doing it from the start your legs will feel better, and you need less nutrition.

It certainly has been a bit of an epiphany for me doing it for last few weeks. Think it is a huge mental filip too, especially if walking every 4.5 minutes, crikey anyone can run for 4.5 minutes right.....

Hey runners, if you haven't already emailed your requirements for Fetchpoint, please do so asap - send an email to fetchpoint@gmail.com. That would be very much appreciated.

Hope you're all doing well, practising eating jelly babies, swigging water, and the all important running bit too.

Thank you for the encouragement fab team four :-)

I think I might have to look into the concept of a run/walk strategy based on time as opposed to miles - I have been aiming for short walk breaks to refuel every four miles or so but to be honest I am not sure how refreshed it made me! Perhaps I need to have more frequent but shorter walk breaks!

Failing that I reckon I can do the approach of running 18 or so miles and stumbling through the rest :-)

Haha Mrs Winkle it can't have been so bad then as you carried on to do that many!! Or is it like childbirth - agony that is soon forgotten?!?!?

I seem to be alternating good LSR's and really hard LSR's currently but I am ever the optimist :-)

SherryB I have sent through my requirements, although I have yet to sort a photo. I will get onto it ASAP (need to buy myself a new running top!)
