Testing My Fitness: 5K Time Trial at Parkrun

[@samuelmaher116]

Great snippets Dave, lovely to see a commentary on what's going through another runners mind as they train and take on a challenge and also trying to return to peak fitness, so many relate to these feelings, fair play

Well done!

Sort of doing the same thing at Shanganagh Parkrun on the 1st of February. Haven’t raced in about 7 months. Very bad vertigo attacks on and off from beginning of September to end of November disrupted training (was supposed to run Valencia marathon in December but had to pull the plug on that in October as hadn’t done the preparation). There are pacers at Shanganagh the first Saturday of every month so going to try and run with the 20 minute pacer to see where I’m at after about 10 weeks with no issues come the time. Edinburgh marathon is the goal in May🤞

@@pauldonohoe3646 sounds like we're on a very similar journey, although I'm at least 2 months away from a potential sub 20 attempt. Good luck at Shanganagh, it's my second most frequented parkrun.

Thank you for the kind words, and hopefully more actual running footage is incoming.
