A few bottles of Corona


I get my coat


Will do my 3k tempo tonight. Did two of these so far over the last two weeks in local park, 12:57 and 12:46. Its the loop of Griffeen park for the parkrun, two bridges so not the fastest. Will use Grange Castle for the 5k

May as well throw me name in the pot! Not sure what the course will be and no where near PB shape but it'll be a good session right! F40-44. Thanks B.

Ah I'm happy in the present circumstances to have it as a BYOS event. I'll have fresh sliced pan and a selection of fillings. Really looking forward to bringing some crisp sandwiches and a can of Larkins IPA

Ooooh, spiffing idea on the post-race refreshments there lad. All going well I might bring the young fella on a bike for 'moral' support, coaching reasons and as a carrier of the all-important IPA.......

Stick me in for the craic. M35-39

I was in the best shape of my life up until 3 weeks ago. Pulled a calf muscle, followed by Club shutting down, running groups banned, put into isolation (as medical precaution) so loss of motivation, this migth help. Might scrape a 5k by that stage.

Omeceron

Ill give it a go as well, M 35 - 39

Annie get your Run

Can I throw my hat in the ring too? God knows what my time will be but if we're allowed and out and back (and out again), I'm in. Should just about manage a sub 30 (and I'll pretend not to care about that....), I'll say 29 mins.

Fair play B, I saw something similar on FB but boards is home .

Just run fookin 5k to quote a much better race organiser from these parts than myself, be it looped, out and back or point to point, run 5k and by 5k i mean 3.10 miles or more!!. I don't want to hear oh i ran a course that has a lot of trees, or my Garmin was acting up on the day. Run 3.10 miles or more or your result ain't counting. I won't bend anymore rules, ye know whats expected so go train.

Busted- its almost like a track that!

Murph_D

If the 2k from home rule is still in force (and I'd say it certainly will be) it could play havoc with my course choices. Certainly not going to do the Fairview parkrun route! But that all adds to the challenge.

career move

I'll do it. I'll aim for 21:20 and hope the wind plays ball

Put me down for the laugh. M30-34. Given my recent "training" I'll aim to break 20 mins.
