QuoteDecember 25, 2016 rikroadrunner2 Comments

Xmas Eve: Saturday 24th December  I did it !! #100 done ! All sub 2hrs and 100 different routes!  Challenge is now complete and I feel a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I never doubted I wouldn’t complete it, I always knew I could do it and was confident in my training […]

Thursday 8th December #97 done this morning in 1:47′ Started from Radbrook Community Centre at 9.30 Was raining when I started but only fine rain and sun was out and shining by the time I finished just after 11. Route wasn’t too challenging but legs were still sore from Sunday’s trail run and yesterday’s intervals […]

Thursday 1st December  #95 done this morning. Had a sore knee since yesterday, happened after training session with Marcus. I strapped it and smothered it with deep heat. It was a very icy cold morning and I made sure I did an extended warmup. Had to combine the run with work once again because of […]

#91 to #94: the RoadRunner keeps marching on …

QuoteNovember 29, 2016 rikroadrunnerLeave a comment

Thursday 17th November  #91 done this morning and number of remaining runs is now in single digits πŸ™‚ Mixed work and pleasure today ( do not try this at home) and after a long 10k session of hill training with Rob I carried on and ran the remaining 11k to complete the half marathon distance, […]

Sunday 6th November  #88, nice number, third half this week! Ran with Paul Williams, we met at the Gateway at 10.30, I ran a mile warm up to get there and Paul a similar distance from Copthorne. Tough course which I partly run before, but was very enjoyable. The pace we kept at was almost […]

QuoteNovember 4, 2016 rikroadrunnerLeave a comment

Thursday 20th October  #83 done this morning in Welshpool with Paul Bowes. After commenting last week on Strava on one of his runs, he offered to drive me to Welshpool and run with me πŸ™‚ Really enjoyed it, beautiful scenery filled with autumn colours. Route is flat and very easy to run on. Was very […]

QuoteOctober 18, 2016 rikroadrunnerLeave a comment

#78 Monday 3rd October  78th half done after four days since last run. Always find it hard going after a “long” break. I didn’t have enough time to fit it in today, so I decided to use a training running session with Rob as part of it and save time πŸ™‚ We ran together for […]

QuoteOctober 1, 2016 rikroadrunnerLeave a comment

#73 today! Took car for a MOT (didn’t pass) in town centre and started my run from there. Was very misty morning but was warm too. My intention was to get a decent time today, stopping less often for photos and selfies and recorded my fastest solo run since end of July at 1:43′ πŸ™‚ […]

QuoteSeptember 12, 2016 rikroadrunnerLeave a comment

Thursday 1st September #69 This morning I completed #69. Was a lovely bright morning, a slight breeze was blowing to start with but got hotter later on. Started at around 9.20 at Radbrook Centre, ran round the Radbrook Green Park pond, took some photos and selfies, waved at a couple of ducks and off I […]

QuoteAugust 28, 2016 rikroadrunnerLeave a comment

Thursday 18th August #65 #65 completed earlier this afternoon. Was hard work, weather was hot so I took it easy from the start. 22 minutes slower than sunday’s race, legs still felt stiff and my aim was to just complete it safely in under 2 hours. Started at home, and on km 1 on Hubert […]
