Velociraptor Feb 2021 10:53am, 15 Feb 2021 51,496 posts	0 Velociraptor With me it's not just weight. My weight when in training is much the same as it's been for the last 15 years (when I take a break from training that's another matter, but I expect to be slower when I haven't trained whether or not I've piled on an extra stone). My stride length at speed has gone down by around 20%.

Ness Feb 2021 11:15am, 15 Feb 2021 13,692 posts	0 Ness I occasionally have a hankering to get down to 9 stone but think that’s pretty much unattainable now. My weight tends to hover around the 9 stone 5 pounds mark which is what I was when I got married in 1995.

GimmeMedals Feb 2021 11:28am, 15 Feb 2021 19,842 posts	0 GimmeMedals My year of PBs was 2013 when I lost a couple of stones and ran regularly. I'm hoping to still be able to hit some PBs if I do the same again.
FenlandRunner Feb 2021 11:49am, 15 Feb 2021 5,904 posts	0 FenlandRunner I'm in that camp RoseHip. At Christmas I was the highest weight ever. But I'm making different choices that will hopefully halt the decline (or should I say stop the increase in waistline and weight).
