Gyms shutting yet again

[Alvor]

Ran 5k yesterday at the gym in 39.44, more tortoise then hare. It could have been 6k as my watch recorded that, but treadmill differed 🤷🏻‍♀️. Will try and get a run in tomorrow before they shut at 1pm to move to Scottish tier 4. I’ll try the outside running again during closure to keep my fitness up. Hope the weather is decent for all your runs. Merry Christmas everyone! 🎄🥂

Ummn, so your watch differs from the treadmill, my daughter's fitbit watch, never tallys with my strava, nrc apps, always ahead, sometimes by 1k 🤔That's a good pace for 5k, well close to what i did today, 39.20 mins. Hope the weather improves for your outdoor runs! 🌞

Running outside! Yay! If you’re off the dreadmill, that can only be a plus!

There was a time (not too long ago) when I only dreamed of breaking the "40" barrier on my 5kms, so yours is hardly a tortoise time, unless it is a tortoise with a Vaselined belly, propelled down a bowling alley by one of those callow youths "trying too hard to impress the girls (who aren't impressed BTW)" ! No tortoises were harmed in the creation of this image 😀.

My 5k is a lot slower than that. My fastest to date has been just short of 46 minutes - so a faster Tortoise than me. 🐢🐢
