@rickcarlino Thank you! Did you see that on The Running Channel? Saw a video like that myself, so hopefully it's pretty close. I'll keep trying to improve in any case! 😄

@recollir That's an encouraging take, thank you!
A #running milestone for me: at the start of 2023, my VO² Max was in the red, literally at the bottom of the dial on my Garmin. I just tipped over into the green for the first time.
Not sure how reliable a measure this is, but I do feel good!
Tried a new #Parkrun event at #Parke this morning. Harder and slower than I expected, but the upside is having something to beat next time!
Mr BiffoIt's only Monday, and today our Digi Patrons have already had a brand new Digitiser vid, BYAMPOD episode, Writer’s Club podcast, and blog. Later this week: exclusive outtakes, and our top tier Patrons will be chatting with us live on Zoom. Starting at only £1 a month, being a supporter of our stuff is EXCELLENT vee eff emm: www.patreon.com/mrbiffo
@Born2beSlicker Thanks, Mark! Hope all is good with you.
Ben#ParkRun 32 done. Bethlem is significantly 'different' from our normal (very very flat and easy) course. So I always sort of dread it as I know I'm going to struggle. But equally I know I'm going to get more out of it and the day I manage to get round without stopping will be a day of national celebration and marching bands. Today was not that day, but OF COURSE I feel amazing.
If I can serve as an inspiration/warning to anyone..... If you're in two minds about getting out and about and going for a run - JUST DO IT. I promise its worth it. Even if it's not a PB. Even if you don't absolutely crush it. It'll be worth it. You'll feel better - more positive. You'll blow away the cobwebs and some of the negativity. And if like me you struggle greatly with the Black Dog, it'll do wonders that pretty much nothing else can.
For those that manage, I salute you.
For your efforts..... A fucking awful picture my wife took of me. I look like I need to be put down or into some kind of home.
