Re: The athletics/running thread
Went for a 5k run tonight. Was still slow (though it felt fast!) but far easier then the previous few outings. Felt I could go further/faster,

Re: The athletics/running thread
Ha. I’ve forgotten my Nike plus log in it’s been so long and I don’t put the really bad ones on there anyway! Obviously because I can’t log in I’m just assuming that I’m well behind you on that leader board and you’re getting out for regular 10k’s!Bruce Rioja wrote: ↑Wed Mar 23, 2022 9:44 amIf it's not on the Nike+ Leaderboard then it didn't happenGooner Girl wrote: ↑Tue Mar 22, 2022 10:15 pmWent for a 5k run tonight.
