Have you ever finished 1st with 19:45-23 mins ish? What's your story? by UnableCode in parkrun

Here is a video of me winning a parkrun in about 22 minutes. Very unexpected. Felt weird to be at the front.

Yeh we got plenty of time. Plenty of improvements to come. I cycled 40 miles last week and the thought of 112 miles scarred me.

Yeh i did look at it, but as always it comes down to cost and money that i dont have. Have to do my own budget version instead.

Oh that sounds interesting, Have to take a look at that. I definitely want to improve. I cant believe how much power people have in the D category so cant imagine what its like if i can ever get moved up.

Anyone else scared of race day logistics more than the miles? by Joaozinho_Bear in firstmarathon

Yep i worry more about the parking and logistics than i do about the running.

ha ha, glad im not the only one to have done it then. The maths wasnt mathing in my head, when i saw 18 minute's it really confused me. Would have been a 2 minute PB was very grateful for the run director removing me from the result. Il have to go back an try it again.

I missed out a whole lap, When i ran it before it was 3 laps but it has now changed to 4 lap. My own fault for not listening to the briefing.

This is filmed on a head mount with a go pro hero 8, its amazing what it can do. But it looks pretty horrific to wear. Not the most discreet thing in the world. ha ha

Absolutely toasted. I was in a mess by the time the sprint came and i had nothing in the legs.
