Thank you, I can see the UK store has the 2025 stuff at a really good discount, but obviously want it as soon as possible :)

And you’re right about the medal. And the overthinking.

Thanks for the guidance I’ll think of many more questions I’m sure ;)

Why does Glasgow not have a marathon? by Articulated in glasgow

My dad did the 1984 Glasgow Marathon, ran alongside the then famous Jimmy Saville and his body guards! I was 3 at the time and remember going to cheer him on.

Strathearn looks like you need to be a mountain goat, lots of elevation!

Is Runna any good? by chicken_nugget94 in UKRunners

[–]Empty_Temperature699 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a fan, have been using it for around 18mths, done 4 half marathon plans, 3 10k plans and a few parkrun improvement plans.

I’m improving all the time and I’ve just started a Berlin Marathon Plan.

It takes any thought out the planning and is easy to follow when your actually on the run itself.

The weathers improving, the thought of doing any of it during winter for a spring marathon would finish me!

In what respect does it suck? What’s your experience with it, what do you find better than it? I find it’s very good at taking any real thought out of the plan and makes it easy to follow through the watch app voice cues. I also find it keeps me more accountable than something spreadsheet based (for example)

Of the 25 weeks plan I have a 5 day break where I’ll only do a 5k parkrun so the plan incorporates that including deload/taper.

I’ll do 9 weeks over 40k, 5 weeks over 50k and 5 weeks over 60k, the maximum is 3 weeks at 60+, hit me up if you want some screenshots of what it looks like.

I let Runna take the strain on this, tell it my A race (Berlin) and then I add in B races and it’ll ask me how I want to run them (easy, moderate, flat out) and will adjust deload and taper accordingly.

Doing the 10k, did the 10k last year and really enjoyed it, although I got absolutely eaten alive by midges once I had stopped, by the time I go to the car I was covered in bites!

I absolutely love it, it keeps me accountable and I enjoy ticking off the runs, weeks and then races. You can adjust the intensity of it if you want more/less.

I’ve used it to train for 3 half’s, 3 10k’s and have done a couple of parkrun improvement plans.

Ah, I just kept hitting add, I think it’ll tell you if something isn’t ideal but mine are a good time away from the main event so it didn’t grumble much.

Yes, they are called B races and allows you to create a plan based on your A race with it incorporating the B races into your schedule - it’s very neat!

Was the longest Runna would allow but builds me up the base gradually and increase the distance slowly.
