Kilbogget, yeah? As those who have run it will know, it's a lot tougher than running on the road. The only thing going for it, is accuracy!Interested in the organisers' ruling on this as I think I'm contemplating the same venue as Krusty ... not the beer though; even if I had surplus energy after the TT I doubt I'd manage even a single lap after a drink.
If tracks are not allowed, I'll probably have to run along the N11 alongside the track, which is the only flat and quiet stretch I know in the area. Open to suggestions. Maybe we could measure out a fair circuit that a few of us could use at different times.0 -

Fair enough. That track is a unique challenge, beer or no beer.0 -

Doing slowly stuff just now and never tried a mile, will edit closer to the day when i get a better idea as to what is possible.
thanks guys for the all the organisation 0 -
Why don't we all test our route out over the next while and let the bosses give pre clearance or not.
Test out Murph's 1m workout idea too and see how it appears on Strava.
Ah there's no need for us to being spending time pre-clearing routes. Do what BeepBeep did a few posts pack. Run the route and if it's within a couple of metres of net even elevation then it's fine. We don't want anything suitable for #stravawankers. Point to point, out and back or a loop is ok.
St Anne's Park down the avenue is not Anybody who wants to argue that it's pretty flat just run it the other way

Yep. The surface is dire but, for a mile TT, getting accurate feedback on pace may be worth it. There's also the mile loop in the park (which I'm sure you are familiar with
) if it's not too busy. I decided against using it for the 5k TT but it may be just about OK for a single lap. 0 -
I do most of my speed sessions there ... it's always nice to have a ready-made excuse when you can't quite hit the targets.TFBubendorfer wrote: »Or, alternatively, there is a very flat one-mile loop in Kilbogget park as well.
And that track is definitely slower than running on tarmac. I used it for workouts on a few occasions and the pace was invariably slower, every single time. 0 -

There's no problem doing it on a measured track. Fire ahead
Great, might see if I can do it on the Dangan track
Do I need to register on Stava (my Nigerian Oil Minister is on hand to help I’ve already sent him my bank account details)
If actual age is required can someone please change mind to 53
Thanks

Seeing as the Nigerian Oil Minister is being so well reimbursed it's only fair that he successfully gets you on Strava 0 -

Don’t get me started on that last one. Or Ferris - deprived him of the M50 crown!0 -

I think it might depend on the watch D. My old 220 worked like that in that the end of the workout stopped the clock. On my 645 the clock continues after the workout is completed....something I only found out in the 5k TT. :pac:
I'll have to RTFM to see if that can be changed....
Thinking about this some more (no detail is too small for this fine event)
In all Garmins I’ve had, the workout PAUSES the watch on completion. You then have to be careful not to hit the start/stop button because that resumes the watch. You need to use the lap button (on my model) to scroll down to Save.
Don’t hit Discard, whatever you do. :eek:
