Are you a pacer - or a racer???

I am definitely a pacer!! - but I usually do have a strong kick.

[Irishprincess Graduate10]

Neither or both! I can tick off boxes in each. Maybe it depends on the day 😊

[JaySeeSkinny Graduate10]

Definitely a pacer. But working on it!

[runswithdogs Graduate10]

definitely a racer. Great article Bazza - I'll have to try their negative split running suggestion.

[davelinks Graduate10]

Usually a pacer, but have been known to sprint to the finish line at Parkrun to beat someone...😁

[Terrorrun Graduate10]

Oh, def pacer - I can tick all of the pacer attributes off !

[ju-ju- Graduate10]

I don't think I'm either, it's very difficult to put people in boxes!!!!

[dagshar]

Instinctively I would have said a pacer, but I am much more relaxed about events and actually tick boxes in both.

I don't think I'm either, I'm still concentrating too much on being able to run at all. Although I do tend to aim for 'negative splits', and when I do parkrun I focus on time rather than position. Maybe I have the potential to be a pacer one day...

I think I am definitely more on the pacer side, I am trying to find my kick, it's there somewhere I am sure of it?
