A quick reminder for anyone who missed this or anyone who has been too shy to put their name down so far! Entries are still open, we'd love you to join us!

We look forward to lots of you joining us on the HU10 start line in approximately 6 weeks! πŸ₯°

β­πŸ“’πŸ“’We are hosting our next HU virtual event: HU10 - spring 24 πŸ“’πŸ“’β­

It's been a while since our last event, so there are more details below for anyone who has no idea what we're talking about!

In short we pick a date and invite our VRBs to cover a given distance, running or walking, wherever they choose! We nominate a date for the event and look forward to reading your race reports. If you can set off at the nominated date and time, you have the added boost of knowing we are all on the virtual HU start line together - running on our own, but definitely not alone.

⭐ Distance: this time you will have the option of 10k or 10 miles or both!

⭐ Main event date: Sunday 19th May (however, as always, we realise the date/time might not work for everyone; so in order to give greater flexibility we will accept runs at any time on Sunday 19th May, or at any point during the following week of Monday 20th to Sunday 26th May).

By my calculations, that gives us 8 weeks to train (although I may still be walking)!!!

⭐ How it works?

β˜… We will compile an event playlist based on your submissions. Let us know any tracks you would like added to the playlist either by sending me a PM via chat, pop it in the comments below or chckout the playlist post here: healthunlocked.com/marathon... 🎢

β˜… If enough people are interested, we can reuse the existing β€˜run experiences’ using RunGo. Some people liked it, others were less keen! Think pantomime version of Nike guided runs! 😊😊😊

β˜… We will have race bibs for you to print at home.

β˜… Finally, we will of course have a winner! In the past, the winner has been the person who completed their run in the time closest to our randomly generated time (after the event closes). Maybe you have a more creative suggestion, but however we choose, we will ensure there is absolutely no requirement to run fast to win this event! πŸŒπŸ†Do let us know if you have a more creative suggestion!

⭐ We hope you’ll be eager to join in (and help make this another great one)

This event is of course entirely free to enter and yet again, there are no t-shirts, medals, socks, aid stations or toilet queues! No training plans or routes will be supplied! Instead, a unique HU experience, run your way 😍

If you're currently running around 5k, this may encourage you to push to 10k. If you're running at 10k, perhaps it will give you the boost to get to the magic 10 miles. If you're running beyond, perhaps you can use it as one of your speed runs! If ... well, you can use your imagination 😍

Let us know if you will be joining us at the startline in the comments below and we will add you to the start list. Both the start list and suggestions for a playlist can be viewed here docs.google.com/spreadsheet...

~~~

From your team, Β Β Irishprincess Β Beachcomber66 and me x

Why on earth did I think it was this Sunday? 🀣

In my erroneous thinking, I did a 10 miler yesterday. I'll write it up later.

I intend to run a slow practice 10K this Wednesday (#49) and on Wednesday 22nd May I will run my 50th 10K much quicker which will be your HU Spring 2024 10K.

Hello linda9389 I notice that you have put the number 59 against my name on that spreadsheet, it will be my 50th 10K, not number 59.

Oops, sorry. Thanks - I'll fix that now.

I'd like to do the 10 miles, but recent events and the fact that I've not run more than 4-5 miles in one go since October, I'm not sure its a good idea..

linda9389 profile image
linda9389AdministratorMarathon in reply to Lookslikejames

How about I put you down for 10k and if you get to run 10 miles we can switch it? I'd hate to put any additional pressure on you, but would love to have you onboard 😊

LookslikejamesMarathon in reply to linda9389

I've thought about it, and I'll try for the 10 miles. I need a boost mentally, so this will be good to push for. If I don't make it then all good

linda9389 profile image
linda9389AdministratorMarathon in reply to Lookslikejames

I'll put you down for 10 miles. Remember the option for 10k is always there if you change your mind ... but I do hope you join us one way or the other 😊

LookslikejamesMarathon in reply to linda9389

Thank you 😊 I'll try 10 miles, like I said, if I complete it it might be a good boost

Hi Linda

i might have to change from the HM to 10k as I’ve got a hilly 10k race the Sunday before πŸ™‚πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ
