Peer pressure made me turn up for my running group's track session at lunchtime today
My third ever track session as normally avoid them but thought good to try something new. Who'd have thought 3x800m would be so hard 
A few miles at marathon pace tomorrow I think & then parkrun in Berlin next Sat instead of the breakfast run.0 -

We're gonna do the breakfast run I think. We've done the park run before anyway.
Although I would encourage anyone doing the breakfast run top please not partake in the releasing of any balloons. Apparently they do a balloon release and hand some out to the runners to release too. It's extremely damaging to wildlife and the environment. I think they also do the same at the start of the marathon which is disappointing. I'm surprised really that they haven't copped on yet but there you go.0 -

Live Rugby, full Irish and a few pints. Sure what could go wrong?

9am as normal I'm afraid
Btw I only remembered this morning to dig out my champion chip in case anyone else is using their own as opposed to renting one.
Any plans to meet somewhere afterwards?0 -

Mate is over in Berlin, sub 3 runner looking to break 2:50......few minutes ago while laying out his gear for tomorrow, notices his bib has Block H on it, the last wave for 4:15+ he's freaking out as we speak.....any nuggets for him? Ran berlin myself a couple of years ago and ended up going into Block C instead of D by accident, so i know he could try and nip by the stewards, but.......that's not ideal really! 0

No hope of running a time starting in Block H. Get a black marker and turn the H into an A or a B and join that Block.0 -

I was a bit disappointed with the lack of camaraderie to be honest. Plenty of pushing, shoving and elbowing going on. Its not like we were going to win it0
