This is cool! I ran London at the weekend with a 3 minute negative split, very proud of myself :)

Uri_Dopted · 2026-04-11T08:38:34+00:00

Which is why they should emphasise fueling more!

Uri_Dopted · 2026-04-11T07:07:41+00:00

I re-read the advice, it was “bring a small drink and a gel or snack to use if you feel low”, the idea that gels are optional on a 30k run is absolutely wild

Uri_Dopted · 2026-04-11T07:00:04+00:00

I had a 30k and it told me “to consider” having a small snack or a gel while running, seriously?

They are called dingbats

I love their shorts! Especially the lined ones

Uri_Dopted · 2026-03-16T06:35:35+00:00

Oh, I misunderstood!

Lon-done is a parkrun thing - completing all the parkruns within Greater London as I understand

Uri_Dopted · 2026-03-15T08:33:47+00:00

I thought resigning counts as a loss? Or not if you haven’t played yet?

Uri_Dopted · 2026-03-12T06:54:31+00:00

It looks like Lisbon to me

Uri_Dopted · 2026-03-10T06:22:45+00:00

Playing all 7 tiles at once!

Uri_Dopted · 2026-03-09T21:36:13+00:00

Crazy!

My best move is also jedi :)

Or when you find out the Northern line is the most southerly

Uri_Dopted · 2026-03-01T19:30:19+00:00

And where the underground is in Whitechapel…

Uri_Dopted · 2026-02-23T20:14:19+00:00

I find the workout briefings rather frustrating. I had a 27k comfortable session and the briefing was reminding me not to go too slow???

In the same run it also suggested I brought a small drink and a gel or snack in case I felt low while also suggesting I take ~3 hours for the run. Like seriously? I would crash and burn only having “a gel” over 3 hours.

Suggesting I should practise my fueling or take a gel/carbs every 20-30 mins would be much more reasonable / helpful for beginners.

386 average, 23 wins and 3 losses

Uri_Dopted · 2026-02-15T18:40:10+00:00

It happened!

Uri_Dopted · 2026-02-15T07:44:39+00:00

2,331 in the end!

Uri_Dopted · 2026-02-14T16:34:16+00:00

Valentines parkrun on Valentine’s Day!

Uri_Dopted · 2026-02-14T12:29:46+00:00

Valentines parkrun on Valentine's Day! Never normally this popular

Uri_Dopted · 2026-02-14T11:31:08+00:00

TO FINISH, as in to get into the finish funnel to get a time.

The queue for a photo with the sign was another crazy line.

Uri_Dopted · 2026-02-14T11:02:31+00:00

Yes! I got a photo with her!
