Good luck with your challenge! I have done a Race at your pace challenge before - nice bling and t shirt! It's good to have a goal to aim for, whether it's training for an event, a virtual challenge or even a Parkrun PB! 😀

Thank you, I had never heard of Race at your Pace until today but added bonus of some bling at the end 🥇

Yes having a goal is a must for me - aiming for a 10k further down the line.

Hi

I can't get it to load some of the site and the video. Is it free ?

When I click on the link it works for me but maybe go to website through google etc...

It costs £10 for Just medal or £14 for medal and t shirt.

Some of the site works but the "challenge" bit just stops and the video gives an error message, I will check on pc tonight

That’s a shame - yes try tonight and hopefully it has rectified itself.

I’ve signed up to this aswell - hopefully will graduate sometime in June. Only 25 miles for me though 🙌

Yay ! Well done Sue and 25 miles is a great target...you will be fine. I have just completed 25 miles for Miles for Mind this month so increased the miles for June 🤦🏼‍♀️ I will follow you so can get motivation and good luck for graduation day 🏃‍♀️🎉

I did something like this for charity. People sponsored me to complete the challenge 😀

So great to run for charity, doing something good and giving you the motivation to get out of the door.

Crikey. Going for it! I need to get my butt moving again. 😕 feeling super stop/start. Stopped for a few weeks again due to a chesty cough. I enjoy reading how people are getting on on here. I’m feeling very frustrated and a little angry with myself. 😬

You will be back out before you know it I’m sure...hope you can soon and your cough has gone 🏃‍♂️

I needed something to motivate me to get me out the door, plus thought I would push myself a bit more this month (just worked out I have to run 20k a week) 🤦🏼‍♀️ didn’t realise that when I signed up ! 🙄 🤣

Off for gait analysis tomorrow so that should be fun - if too expensive I will come away with socks 🧦

in reply toRunRunRun13

Thank you 😊. I’m off away soon, so might get running then. Should help having a break from work etc too. Great for the body and soul. Gait analysis wasn’t too much I don’t think. The trainers I chose were quite expensive for me. But they were one of the ones they picked out, they also picked cheaper but these were just the most comfortable. 20k a week is well achievable for you! 5k per run. I’m sure you will smash it.

Nothing better than getting away from all the stresses of work and don’t forget to pack your lycra - sure you could fit in a run. Have a lovely time away !

I’m hoping they have a sale section🤞🤣and that I’m not shown a video of me running or I may have to have words 🤐

in reply toRunRunRun13

Haha yeah. Missed that stretchy Lycra! Not sure it will still fit my butt 😂. I’m looking forward to it rain or shine. Na. They just video your feet/ legs. I don’t even think I saw myself on it. The chap even encouraged me to take them for a short jog up and down the street before I’d bought them.

No problem everyone, sharing is caring after all!

I’m doing my first Race At Your Pace challenge this month, my goal is 25 miles to begin with.

I would love to follow everyone who is doing Race At Your Pace this month in this thread! X

That’s great, lovely to have as a VRB and starting the challenge for June together.

I know that member (Kertesz) is also doing it on here.

Will need to post and keep update on how everyone is doing 🥇

I am still on track for Race at your pace for June! Even with the wet UK weather at the moment I've been going out for my runs! I've done 6 x 5K runs so far so I'm looking good for 25 miles this month. Hope everyone else is getting on well with their June target x

Amazing ! Well done !

Yes I’ve done about 18 miles so far I think so we are both going to get there for sure.

Are you joining in with Ju-Ju’s plan on Monday ?

Good luck with the rest of your runs 👍
