Who has been a Virtual Runner?

[Sandraj39]

Having read Goonkeepgoing's post, I was wondering who has tried this and did you find it motivating?

[Noaky12 Graduate]

I did my first one last week. I did find it motivating as it pushed me to do a run I was proud enough of to submit publicly!!

I've also signed up for the October 10k & the Poppy challenge, all of which give that added reason to keep on running! 😆

Me! I do lots. I'm a total bling addict! Xx

I didn't enjoy the atmosphere or the company.

😀ha ha! So sorry to hear that😉!

[goonkeepgoing Graduate in reply to Rignold]

I bet you had to set up your own obstacles too so it ruined the surprise!

[Rignold in reply to goonkeepgoing]

I came second as well, which was v disappoint

[Noaky12 Graduate]

signed up for the poppy run. supposed to be 30k+, but I want to do quite a bit more than that.

Ooh yes ! Very motivating. I try to do one a month but in addition to my normal 3 runs a week to make it worth striving for. I've got the October sprint triathlon and the poppy run to look forward to.

[Rignold in reply to Hidden]

Triathlon? Impressive.

[Hidden in reply to Rignold]

Yes, I'd never be brave enough to do a public one ! I did a VR one on the hottest day of the year so hoping for a pb in October.

I did one with other C25K people, we all did 10K at as close to the same time/date as possible. I found it quite emotional to think of us all running at the same time in our various locations. There was a medal if you wanted but you had to order it yourself. One chap had it engraved which I thought was nice.

Oh, I can imagine that would have felt quite special.
