Just catching up here and wanted to touch on a couple of points which have been raised.

Firstly, anyone wishing to make a donation to charity we would row in behind Pieta House as was suggested by Laineyfrecks.... here's the link....

https://www.darknessintolight.ie/sunrise-appeal

Secondly there were be no trinkets or punter pleasing paraphernalia associated with this TT. The prestige of the Mile, a distance of great importance in the history of athletics, will not be sullied with such gimmickry!

The money being donated to Pieta house is more than enough for me

Cheers lads, looking forward to this!

Sub 4 miles run in Ireland.

I don't think we'll be adding to that :pac:

I'm afraid of the consequences under this new regime if I were to make a balls of the table!

Can someone stick me down for 5:40. M 40.

Thanks

This new regime will DQ you before the event for a prediction like that :pac:

For anyone thinking of updating the table don't do it until CBG comes back with something realistic

The current regime are predictable and consistent. The last regime just flip flopped. Didn't know whether I was coming or going or coming but handicapped or going but out and back.

I'm already in the cross hairs of The Gestapo!

You are confusing me with the CBG of 7 months ago. Ok I might see fit to stretch to 5.30 which would be a PB. That's as low as I go, take it or leave it Herr Commander!

Ah the lads are doing a great job; hard for Sweatlicker to keep SB in check to be fair!

Potential mile sussed this evening; up the Old Lucan Road from the PH turn at the bus turning point and back down the road.

Couple of positives and negatives to it.

I'd be really grateful if someone could add me in - the table is terrifyingly big now. Aiming for 7:31; F40.

lenny palmer

Hi there would somebody be able to pop me in please. M47 aiming for 7 minutes. Thanks

nop98

Ah darn it, might as well dust off the auld boards account and join in.

Added lenny and panso as well.

The Descent, Hmmmm, interesting handle!!

shotgunmcos

Something to think about when it hurts...

MY BAD

Just on elevation gain for the TT. I notice on Strava sometimes on a 400m track you might get - 3m per kilometre elevation, then the next kilometre might be 0m or +2m elevation gain. Last night I was doing kilometres over and back on the same strech and there was a few meter in the difference. Would that be my watch faulty or has anyone else noticed this?

It depends on the watch. I find mine which is barometric to be totally unreliable. Some watches use GPS plot points which while more accurate can be slightly off. For the TT as long as someone starts and finishes at pretty much the same point there's no problem.

Course options are strictly to be Out and Back or a mile loop. No smaller loops allowed. A straight mile is ok if there is no net elevation loss. If you need to do either a small bit more or less than a loop to complete the mile there cannot be net elevation loss.

Tell me again, how do we measure "net elevation loss" on Strava ?
I was getting confused so I checked Strava support page here:
https://support.strava.com/hc/en-us/articles/216919447-Elevation-for-Your-Activity
Now I'm more confused.

If I look at my 5K TT out-and-back route (where net elevation should be zero) the "elevation gain" (on mobile app) is 44m. On the Strava webpage this is just called "elevation".

For my mile TT, I'm planning a straight mile to avoid turn-around stop-start. Other than just "don't be a d1ck" how do we ensure "no net elevation loss" ?
I hear these TT organisers are very strict.

Great minds etc.

I know it's only 1500m, but this how to suffer, and make your opponents suffer:

One of my favourite races of all-time.
