Sports you play as an adult

rhouses which school is that?

Hursty lunacy!

Fair play! Good luck

Hursty Good luck!
Have you thought about golf? That’s a bit more relaxing exercise

Hursty
Good look sir. I take it you’re doing on a bike. My mate done it a few years ago for charity. I may see see you as I goes through chanctonbury ring.

rhouses St. Bedes Prep School.

Know St. Bedes well, mainly because we used to smash you at cricket!

Dubman Running, well attempting to run it all…aiming for 18 hours as I have a hotel booked in Eastbourne with the Mrs and I’d like to make use of it!

Hursty Sweet Jesus, good for you. That distance is no joke. I’m staring down the idea of a 50 km ultra in 15 months and that seems like a massive challenge, 160 km is an massive undertaking.

Are you doing it supported?

Hursty That’s helpful, I’m prepping my wife for the possibility of doing that lol. 20 will be warm for sure, I’m always feeling like I’m low on sodium. Getting the hydration and nutrition balance right seems like a black art to me. I’ve been doing everything up to 22 km fasted so far, but that might be close to the edge of that strategy, so I’ve been spending some time trying to figure it out.

You should GoPro a live stream so we can watch you suffer.

Superhuman effort that Hursty!

I haven’t completed it yet Ed! I’m still sat at home drinking tea

Hursty Nice, what number are you? Can I ask what training plan you followed too? The 50 km race I’m considering looks like a lot of climbing, so I’m thinking of a 16 week marathon plan, just on hills instead of flat ground, but I’m not sure if that’s the best strategy.

303abuser Plenty of Booze and crisps should keep you in tip-top shape

303abuser I used an app called TrainAsOne which is an AI powered training schedule, i’ve found it to be great, you can also use it for free, however its only £6 a month for the pro version.

Basically you enter your race goals and it generates a plan for you, if you miss a session or do something else on day it automatically recalculates which means its very flexible over a set plan.

The fitness tests are straightforward as well, 3.2km flat out, 6 min flat out and perceived effort runs.

354.

Mad_Cyril Lol I’ve discovered the longest I can run hungover is about 15 km, after that, shit goes south quick.

Hursty Thanks, I’ll check that out. Sounds similar to my half plan through my garmin watch, but it doesn’t have any longer distances. Good luck this weekend, I hope you have a good experience.

Hursty
Cap well’ n’ truly doffed my friend. I take you’ve studied the terrain.
