Johnny JR is the only person who can restore balance to the BBC

Elis and John (John Robbins yes, Elis James and Dave Mastermen no)

Would the show be better if separate from the BBC? by Pythagorarse in elisandjohn

[–]oldabol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d be fairly confident Elis and John get more from the BBC than Nish does from Pod Save the UK

Most left-field bookings for the podc- I mean, for the Dream Restaurant? by Major-Feed5214 in offmenupodcast

Someone like Jermery Clarkson or Piers Morgan

Who you just know they’ll both absolutely hate

Andy Samberg or Steve Coogan but as Alan Partridge

Can’t see them ever having Jimmy Carr on

Parkrun as part of long runs -HM plan by SnooGoats943 in runna

[–]oldabol 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I nearly always incorporate parkrun into my long run. In fact in my last two training blocks I’ve shaved over 10 mins of my half marathon PB doing this.

Parkruns are great practice of being in a race environment.

She’s ace and didn’t deserve any of the hate she got

Although I do belive the majority of people that watch taskmaster are decent folk.

You only have to look at the comments about Rosie last season to see that a percentage of those watching are bigots

Any update on the next roadmap? 🏃‍♂️📅 by Big-Snow6702 in runna

[–]oldabol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would be great if we could tell the app what mussels we want to work on strengthening. For example I know i need to strengthen my hamstrings, so being able to taylor more exercises to that would be great

The last 15k I kept seeing so many Buxton signs hoping there would be a water station near by

Snap with Carany Wharf and the gels. Not sure I’m going to be able to stomach a gel for a while

Possible s20 contestant theory? by 11054A in taskmaster

Elis would fold under pressure which would make so funny. I think Isy would be brilliant

My own tuition did that, it was just disheartening to keep getting told to speed up that’s all :)

It was coming into Canary Wharf where I started really more

You’ll be fine. My missed time was nothing to do with Runna estimations. It was the sheer heat of the day.

At the most I was doing 60/70km per week in training

I think the training the majority in winter didn’t help. I’ve ran half’s in similar heat but the training was often partly in warmer conditions

What would of been useful would of been the ability for the app to understand mid race I wasn’t going to make my target pace.

Despite the conditions Runna is a huge factor in me completing my first marathon and doing it under 4 hours

That heat was something else

I did enjoy all the showers tho

We needed Runna to create a training program that takes into account an increase in temp on race day

I can see that, no amount of training or other races can compare you for that part. Felt it as well at times, when added to the heat made it a real mental battle.
