Just a general thread about running. How's your running going? What are you training for? Did you get new shoes? Sporting an injury etc.

Edit - late post as I kept getting "invalid post title" errors

Parkrun for me on Saturday was good. Was a tourist at one over in Hawthorn on the river. Very scenic with the redgums, and a meandering path. About 300 people, and dry so very dusty.

8km run this morning with the doggo around the streets. Felt pretty sore around the 5km mark but then zoned out for a while and next i looked at my watch I was at 7km with only one way home so it had to be 8km. Feeling ok now, so happy with it.

Edit. Found you can make these on Runalyze (free tier). Pretty neat.

Did my first parkrun on saturday. Finished in just over 36 minutes. Only walked about half of it. Was just as low key & low stress as I’d hoped, until my watch didn’t want to cooperate with exiting the timer and showing my barcode. Luckily i still had the page open on my phone’s browser.

Am wanting to return but won’t necessarily make it every weekend.
