    Thank you again to Oonegative for blazing a trail with edition 1 of the Boards TT: 5k. Thank you to the 2 lads, Swashbuckler and skyblue46 for following up with edition 2: The mile

    Now its time for edition 3 and Healy1835 & I will drive it on with all of your support to make it happen. Hopefully together with this wonderful running community we have can make this another exciting day to look forward to. As before we'll try to compile overall results, age category results and an age graded result. Any help with correcting tables as we go along will be greatly appreciated.

    Attention: Please do not update the table if you are not sure how to. Post any changes you would like made or new entries as a post in the thread. We will update the table every few days. Thanks.


    Event: Your choice of 10mins TT, 10k TT or 10mile TT :)


    Pick something from column 1
    Pick something from column 2
    Pick something from column 3
    Set a goal - This calculator might help

    1|2|3
    TT|10|minutes
    TT|10|k
    TT|10|mile


    Date: Saturday 4th July, Independence Day for some and maybe all if we can get together and run.

    Course: Wherever you want it to be! We wont be as formal about the 5k or mile, those guys were hard. However once you set your goal, just do it on the day. There is a Strava thread on twitter that we can send any messing to :p In the end of the day if you want to record a crazy fun 10min downhill, go for it. Just don't expect us to find a AG grading or include you in overall results!

    Entry Fee: Absolutely free!! If anyone feels like making good use of a virtual entry fee we would be delighted if you threw a few bob in this direction.

    AOB: Link to the Strava group.... https://www.strava.com/clubs/boardsTT3

    If you join the Strava group could you post on it and mention your Boards username. We can dig them out of previous threads but that will take time.

    When putting your details into the table here would you mind putting in your actual age rather than age category. It's the only way we can work out age grading for the 10k and 10mile.

    Thanks for taking part. It's brilliant to see how these virtual TTs are bringing our running community together.

    Thanks for setting this up. I'm in for the 10 minute TT. Planning to focus on shorter stuff from July so a 10' trial will be the perfect baseline maker.

    Edit: M48 by the way. Prediction? 2.5 km


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,015 ✭✭✭Itziger


    I'm arriving back in Lux from Palma Mallorca on July 4th. The previous 3 days will feature quite a bit of activity I think but little of that will involve running.

    I think I'm outta this one. Good luck to all.

    Well done gents for taking this on. Great idea too. Eeny, meeny, miny, moe will be my decision maker here as I would happily do any of them.

    10k is probably the most I’d get done on 4th of July(wedding anniversary) and as long as I’m ahead of shotgunmcos.......

    Spotted this on the corner of my eye on Strava, joined the group then came here. Will See what the coach has planned for me that day and will update the table. Originally part of the dcm19 novices team here. Looking forward to it :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,181 ✭✭✭healy1835


    Wilkommen everyone. Shotgun and myself will try our best to meet to high standards set by the 3 lads for the last couple of TT's. I'll be having a rattle at the big daddy of the three, the 10 Mile. Stick me down for a PB, 59:41. May or may not be remotely possible but I'll have a rattle at it regardless. I'm sure AMK will join me over the 10 Miles, him being the faster over the distance of course...

    As luck would have it, I had planned to do a 10 mile that very day so count me in. Sub 65 doesn't correlate to my 1 mile or 5k time, but it would be a 1 min PB

    Really like the strava group avatar but I have a query.

    Which of our illustrious organisers is represented by the Road Runner and which is represented by Wile E Coyote? :pac: :)

    LOL
    Coyote is me because I came up with the idea, set the boulder up, planned out the crash and am more likely to fall flat on my own face :D:confused:
    RR is healy1835 as well, he is just too fast for GPS to pick up up properly on tight corners ;):D

    I thought preemptive celebrations and beers were a requirement for these Boards TTs?

    Not anymore after last Saturday afternoons mess!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,807 ✭✭✭skyblue46


    Best of luck with it lads and a huge thanks for taking it on. Could you stick me down, M53. I won't do another table because Barry gets a wee bit upset when the thread is clogged up with a stream of tables :pac: I'll leave distance and time as a TBC at this point. Thanks again.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,208 ✭✭✭shotgunmcos


    Cool skyblue46. Its easier to follow on from example :)

    All,

    Editing tables takes time. Happy to go over the posts and update the table for ye every few days. Just post your event, AG and goal time or distance and make sure you join the Strava group.

    Luckily I’m not the sensitive type with all the digs I’m getting lately, between this one and that other ghoul accusing me of telling lies on Strava!!!

    Nothing stopping you doing all 3 on the day ;) Separately of course..

    Big thanks for taking this on lads. Count me in. Undecided yet as to what distance. Will consult with the brains of the operation this weekend. M38.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,831 ✭✭✭Annie get your Run


    How does one calculate their predicted distance for the 10 mins? I should be able to run closer to an 8 min mile by July 4th, I cant calculate in kms :D

    Edit 2km should be doable

    F49

    Thanks for organising guys, these threads are just brilliant.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,621 ✭✭✭ThebitterLemon


    Think I’m gonna have a bash at 2.5k in 10 minutes

    I’m going to start a 5k plan soon and I’m hoping to get back below 20 mins before the summers over

    Might be a bit of a stretch but something to aim for

    8min mile pace is roughly 5min per km. For 10mins that's 2km.........I think...

    Nice one lads, a cracking idea.

    Haven't raced a 10m in almost 2 years, think I remember enjoying it somewhat :)

    Going with what the mile predicts which will be a 7 min pb. Can't wait.

    10 Mile surely...


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,393 ✭✭✭Dubh Geannain


    Thanks for taking it on lads.

    I'll try and get 3.001 km in 10 minutes.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,178 ✭✭✭MY BAD


    I might try the 10km if I can find a decent route although I find the 10 minutes one appealing too
