    I can guarantee you no sandbagging involved, I’ll run 10secs above or below 20mins and no more

    I'm aiming for top 3 O60. :pac:

    I ran 30 mins non stop today, which doesn't sound like a lot, but back in February I had a partial tendon tear at the back of my knee, acquired during the climbing challenge, and I only restarted gentle jogging on March 27th, and even that was only 3 mins. I think I'll manage about 35, just sticking to 7min/km. Nothing too wild, but it's nice to be back running.

    Are we using exact ages, or just categories? Because I'm about to turn 61... :p

    Have been a little busy myself, so have done very little running in last month. Slowly getting back into it, but plan for this TT will defo to be just to feel my way into it. See how it feels and end up with slow 1st k, OK 2nd, 3rd and 4th k and quickest 5th k.


    Given my lack of running since 24th March and likelihood that I'll be running with E, I think my prediction is pretty leaky ( the opposite of sandbagging!!). But not worth shifting it.

    Run 3:24, 3:24, 3:24, 3:24, 3:23. Stop watch at 16:59. Immediately run my victory lap at an even faster pace.

    Píosa cácá.

    Ha ha ha. Is now the best moment to ask if I could break a 10 Mile TT activity up into 11.1k/5k sections to qualify for this weekend? :)

    So what shoes will you wear for this?

    Magic carpets straight to hell
    Different feet for Tbl?
    Or matching socks to Lainey's frock
    Surely, an M60 sub20 shock :)

    If I had any sense or a demonstrable history of wisdom, this should really be a DNS...but I don't so will be giving it full socks on Saturday morning :-)

    Was hoping to get physio (for a non running related issue in my side/lower back) earlier in the week but no appointment until Thursday...if I'm feeling ok after that I'll give it a go

    All

    To save us having to stalk you down on Strava because you might not be on the cough, cough, hint, hint, nudge, nudge Strava boards 5k TT club could you please update your time with a link in this thread this weekend? It will help to create results more efficiently.
    Much appreciated

    I must fess up and admit it was self serving in requesting a 5k TT as April’s challenge. There’s a race scheduled for this Saturday, in the plan I’m following. So in the circumstances, a virtual race was the best I was going to manage. All my speed work the last few weeks has gone to plan, and unlike a lot of races I face into, I’m finding it hard to find any bad omens when I look back over my recent training. Touch wood, Saturday is not that day.

    Unlike my usual kamikaze approach to racing, I’m going to start sensibly for this. Hopefully that will yield five 3:10 splits. The pain will arrive early though, so it will be a long 15+ minutes.

    I’ll be kitted out in Nike Vaporfly NEXT%, and making no apologies for it.

    I’ll be wearing the Next% too. I won’t be apologizing either, although I do think the shoe fetish on this forum is getting out of hand. So much footwear talk!

    Well it's not like theres much racing to talk about! It'll die off when we have race specific blocks of training and race reports to talk about again.

    the heart says 3.40, 3.45. 3.50, 3.55 . 4.00.. have tried and failed with this one before though.. bad habit of going out too fast

    No but in fairness he has been the main culprit in feeding our shoe fetish with all his discounts etc:P

    I'm okay with this :D

    I'm going to attempt this TT in the Dublin St. Annes parkrun course on Saturday morning if anyone wants to join in a bit of mutual suffering. Social distanced of course

    It will be Sunday for me. 5k split as part of a long run broken into warm up, 5k, long cool down :cool:

    Was told to go on the conservative side of target pace which is tempo for 3k, goal for 2k. I'll be wearing the magic carpets so conservative for the first km at least, is out the window :D Ideally cool the jets for km 2 &3 and push on from there.

    Also, If you are not on the table please shout. Thank you to those updating it, much appreciated :)

    the head says 3.55 all the way round, with maybe a sneaky 3.54 thrown in at the end

    the heart says 3.40, 3.45. 3.50, 3.55 . 4.00.. have tried and failed with this one before though.. bad habit of going out too fast

    My way of racing 5k has always been to go out hard and hang on for dear life. It's an uncomfortable way of doing things and it definitely doesn't work for any longer distances but I did surprise myself pleasantly a few times - once I was able to breathe again, that is.

    yeah same for me up to very recently, i think as the body gets a bit older its less taxing even psycholgically to even pace it..and not have the thoughts of the horrors to come whilst your still only half way through, having said that , all of my latest efforts have been time trials, in a race it would be hard not to go out hard and chase people ..

    Hope everyone is feeling excited for the TT, whether you're doing it tomorrow, Saturday or Sunday!

    I'm pretty sure some of you in the table above haven't joined the Strava club - please click and join :) I promise you will then feel good about yourself for helping us keep track of everyone's TT!
    Also, if you're joining, please comment your boards name in the discussion tab because there are still plenty of people I can't match up :rolleyes:

    And it's still not too late to join - the women are particularly under-represented !! Even if just to see where you're at ?? :D

    Hi

    I’m going to have to drop out - somethings come up so won’t get a chance to do a TT at the designated time . Did one myself on Tuesday and happy enough with my time. Thanks for giving me the kick I needed as confident now training working .

    Best of luck all !
