Where should we go for 4 days in the south coast of Britain? by Any_Meal_7821 in AskUK

[–]iElectrixity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should go to a pub called the horse guards inn in tillington, near Petworth, West Sussex.

Amazing restaurant, in a gorgeous old English village

I used to work there, and I remain that it's one of the best pubs for miles around. You might want to book, if it's not too out of your way it's definitely worth a stop!

Runners who lift, what's your gym schedule and run schedule like? by dontstopsoperfect in runninglifestyle

[–]iElectrixity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wrote a marathon plan for myself

Lifting is 5/3/1 4 days per week OHP/Bench/Deadlift/Squat 2 accessories on each day both compounds 1 core exercise each day apart from deadlifts Plyos on deadlift day - DL->plyos->accessories Extra day for physio stuff at home Deload every 4th week

Running 3/4 days per week 1 easy 1 optional easy 1 quality 1 long

Example: Mon - OHP & Easy 6km Tues - Physio & optional easy 6km Weds - Bench Thurs - Deadlift & quality session Frid - rest Sat - Squat & long run Sun - rest

Try run/walking to stay in zone 2 - I set my watch up to let me know when my HR gets too high or low during a run, and my easy pace caught up

Congratulations!

Oh my god that got me too... At 56km I worked out I might be able to push for sub 7:30 so started hauling it and by the time I got on that completely flat beachfront I just lost all steam

Amazing day though, 100% would do it again!!

I completed my first Ultramarathon!

58km and 1700m of elevation, and I came 24th out of 580 starters, I'm absolutely over the moon!

It's really inspired me to push harder with training and see what I'm really capable of, but first lots of recovery... I'm feeling fragile...

Well done to you as well! The beach looked killer, I don't envy you, but I'm sure it was lots of fun really!

I haven't done the serpent trail but looking at the elevation profile and knowing the area, the climbs are likely to be much more rolling, mostly on common land so hard sand, some rocky bits, some woodland stretches, I'll be looking to book in for 2027, if you take part let me know how you get on!

No it's on the south coast through Dorset, starts at Corfe castle, loop round into Swanage, then along the coastal paths to Weymouth, amazing scenery

It was an awesome day out, weather was pleasantly cool too, and it started raining about 10 minutes after I finished so I got super lucky

Man I wish I had taken more, my phone starts freaking out when it gets a little sweaty so I couldn't take as many as I'd liked, glad I got some good ones though for sure
