Looking for virtual run buddy who's up for a 10 Mile run in the morning?
A week or so ago Stocksy67 was planning one and it gave me great encouragement on my run, when the going got tough I thought of him struggling also ...so mentally spurred him on, which in turn helped me keep going!!
Would be great to compare our run afterwards?
Go on..you know you want to 🏃♀️🏃🏃♀️🏃🏃♀️🏃🌟
Just by coincidence I was thinking of running my 3rd 10 miles run tomorrow as my midweek run. 🏃🏾 👍
Really AlMorr? What time do you head out at usually?
I'm planning around 7am 😁
I've just seen your last 10Mile run post and we run at similar pace although you beat me by around 4 -5 minutes.. that would give me something to aspire to 👍🙏
Early, 7.30, this is to avoid the warmer temperatures of later in the morning, I notice that the temperature where I live in Central Scotland is to be around 13C/55F at about 7.30 in the morning which is a nice temperature to run. 🏃🏾
Ok then Alan I usually run a bit earlier but if your up for it I shall wait till 7:30 ..Wow fantastic.. looking forward to it 🏃🏃♀️☺️
Don't go wizzing ahead 🤣🤣
Sleep well.. get mentally prepared.. and I shall see you at the virtual start line tomorrow..
🤩
I will set my metromone app at 160 cadence, which is the minimum I use, on my (not) parkruns it's usually set at 170/175 cadence and on some of my 10K runs, for example my recent Virtual Vitality London 10,000 I set it at 165 cadence /beats/ steps a minute, good luck for your 🏃🏾run 👍
Good luck Alan, see you at the start line soon. 🏃🏃♀️🙏 Good luck 🙌
Update sparky66, I have just come back from my 3rd 10 miles run, I began at exactly 7.30am and completed in a time of of 2.04.27, however, that time is due to quite a fast first 10Ks, my average pace up to 10K was 07.30 min/km, the fastest being 07.18 min/km, but I started to slow down especially after the 12th kilometer, the last kilometer was way down to 08.52 min/km, from now on I won't be running any more than 10Ks, any thoughts of running a half marathon was "put to bed" no more runs beyond 10K from now on. I hope you enjoyed your 10 miles run this morning.
OMG well done Alan 👏👏👏I can't believe how close we were I ran mine at 2.04.44!!!
That for me was a massive 7 minutes faster than my previous 10 Mile PB 💥
I Ran the opposite slower first half and faster second.. was great thinking of you running along side me..I always visualised you a bit further ahead of me..but we must have ran past each other many times 😃
Thanks for that.. hopefully you feeling okay.. you done amazing!!
I hope I can still run like you ten years on 👏👏👏👏👏in fact I will be 55 a week today..so you being 20 years older than me.. that's just amazing 🙏❤️
I am feeling fine thanks, well done on that PB, IF I do want to run a half marathon then I will have to change my tactics on running, in all of the runs that I have run, the first two or three min/km have been the fastest, nevertheless I enjoyed my third 10 miles run this morning, the time was 2.04.27, about the same time as my first two ten mile runs, however, I think from now on 10K will be my longest run., enjoy the rest of your day.
Ah Sparky I’d love to join you but what with work (it really gets in the way 😆) and still recovering from the HM, I’m not sure when the next long one will be 😢. Next time for sure! Have fun, I’m sure you’ll have plenty of takers!!! 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️
Ooh definitely too early for your next 10Miles.. but fantastic we really should buddy up one day 🏃♀️🏃♀️It's a great motivator 💪
Look forward to it..
Look after yourself..think I saw on another post your thinking of a recovery run tomorrow..if so..good luck 👍
I wish! I can't run at the moment - and certainly not that far. So please, could I ask you to take me on your 10 mile run tomorrow? If the going gets tough, just think how much I would LOVE to be taking those next steps, running those remaining miles. Run it for everyone who can't. I'll be cheering you on.
Awe Linda, I sure will be thinking of you and wishing you well.. you'll get back to it when the time is right 🙏This forum really keeps me inspired on the tough run's..in fact most runs..I think of our members running journey's..all amazing!!!
🏃♀️🏃🏅🏅💥
I will - one day maybe I'll get to actually run the 10 miles at the same time as you!!! But for now, do it for me and let us know all the best bits when you get back (you can be writing the report in your head as you run) 😊
I’m doing a 10k so I will think of you sparky66
Brilliant Dexy5, what time are you planning your run? 😁😁😁
Good luck 😃
Good luck k to the 10 milers.... Will be thinking of you racing against the day heating up.
I do my long runs at the weekend. A 10 miler would take me a bit under two hours, plus connecting walks. I can't fit that into a normal working day.
My next planned long run is 10km. I might do a 10 mile one near the end of the month. I've got to work back up to it again after several weeks of hot weather and followed by a short illness.
The remainder of this week is: intervals run tomorrow, 2 miles Thursday, rest Friday, parkrun Saturday, 10km Sunday, rest Monday.
Best of luck doing 10 miles tomorrow!
Hi sparky66
I couldn’t quite manage 10miles this morning. I did 9.63 miles and brought you with me on my slow 2 hour run. Cheering you on for your 10miles and AlMorr ❤️🏃♀️🏃🏻♂️
Awe congratulations RunWillie 👏👏👏Wow you were out early 🏃🌛
How did it go?
Hope you feeling ok and resting up a while ☺️
I'm up and itching to go, but waiting for AlMorr 🤗
Have a great day after that run ☺️
And thank you I appreciate your support🙌
First 10 mile run 🎉
