under 10c or feels like, thin gloves and short sleeved shirt with singlet underneath.

5c and below, long sleeved shirt and tights, and warm hat.

closer to 0c may wear an extra shirt over top of long sleeves.

edit: material is whatever quick dry sports material is available. ive not seen a significant difference in performance between top end (2xu, under armor) and no name dept store / ali amazon / temu brands

I’m not a morning runner by any stretch but I’ve always made time for Parkrun. Sometimes its sociable but often times its just me and a bunch of strangers going for a run.

Sometimes you just want to be around people but not have to interact.

I realised that recent issues I was having with legs and feet appear to have been caused exclusively by old shoes. I’m not sure how ppl get more than 800km out of a pair of shoes. Mine will barely last 500km.

Anyway, reminder to track shoe mileage and toss them when they get old. If you search it up you can find info on how to spot shoes that are no longer performing.

I think if your body is not used to getting up at 5:30am and eating, its gonna feel weird. My only morning run is usually a parkrun, and I don’t eat before that. My other runs (12 - 16 km) I usually wait until I’ve had a large meal + 90 minutes then go.

I usually run in the evenings, I struggle with events because they usually are run early in the morning (so I have the same issue, having to get up early just to eat).

For getting past 10km, just make sure you are putting a long run into your weekly runs, and keep increasing your total mileage week on week. Yeah, it will be a struggle until your body can catch up to it.

Thats a really good time for a first HM. I was previously not doing anything when running re listening to something but I’ve recently been trying to listen to podcasts that I dont have to pay too much attention to. It would be good to have someone to talk shit with as well, just to take your mind off it.

How did you go?

According to smashrun I’ve had 27 heart healthy weeks this year, which I’m pleased with.

I got a 1.5L back reservoir and have been using it for my longer (15 km +) runs. I’m stunned by the difference proper hyddration has made. Recovery time after longer runs has been much shorter as well.

Long run last night trying to make up volume missed through the week. Just a gentle jog at parkrun

Not sure if anyone has a similar thing they do. There have been some arguments lately in our car so I guess here we are.

 

Had no idea this was a thing to be honest.

Edit: bit tone deaf but can see the value in the changes.

 

How are we feeling about the update to the app (for those that use it)?

Its been a week and I’m still getting used to it.
