It was you I thought of as soon as I read it Oldfloss ! Sometimes Michael Johnson says to me that I could consider increasing my pace a little if I'm feeling good. I've NEVER taken him up on his offer. I am the original plodder but I couldn't care less - it's still running!

I'm so glad to read this! Thought I was nuts 🥜 not taking Sarah M up on her offer to increase pace! I'm in good company so it seems. I've added that link to my favourites and am going to join. 😊
