    I would hate to have some random lurking and living on my property.... But I wouldn't see a flat as a negative though

    https://www.rte.ie/news/2021/0523/1223434-ultra-runner-meath/ An ultra-runner from Co Meath is recovering after breaking several distance records during his latest fundraising event. Navan man Keith Russell pushed the limits of human endurance in winning the 'Last One Standing' race in Florida Manor, Co Down, earlier this month. Keith Russell with his Last One Standing Award Keith ran 425.5km during an event that started on a Saturday and ended on a Tuesday. He explained: "It's 6.7km laps every hour. You can run it as slow or as fast as you want, as long as you’re back at the start line every hour to go again. I ended up doing 63 laps. The race has no finish line. It just carries on until one person is left."

    I absolutely loved reading this post last night. Its never about the shoe...but all about the effort you put in

    not great news. I am not a big fan of browsing through the mobile browser because you end up with multiple active tabs on your mobile browser everytime I open the shortcut I created on my homescreen

    are we not going to play a game of guess where @ChrisF lives?

    My ASICS get about 1000 miles. I still have one pair on about 900 miles that I still use, but only for short runs. I have switched to Brookes and my first pair of Ravenna's (which are not a marathon shoe) are on about 700 miles and they are starting to feel like they're ready to be replaced. I don't use them for long runs anymore. My Brookes adrenaline pair are on about 300 miles at the moment and still feel brand new

    For the record...I was referring to the standard maxed shoes.. Not the carbon plate ones... I agree Those have a life limit regardless of brand

    I think you'll find that after about 400 to 500km they will be shot... But 2 pairs will still be cheaper than 1 pair of a big name brand... However It's just more crap to go on the landfill eventually... So I'll rather buy the big brand name

    I did see that while googling to see the results.

    it will be the same for 2022 I reckon...doubt I will qualify. Still deciding if it is worth it. Might just be easier to enter a European marathon
  14. Stretch
    and then there is this...the same on a 120mm hardtail...can you imagine is arms and legs afterwards!

    thats a pretty amazing perspective - gives you a real sense of whats involved the scary thing is that Gee is off the competitive pace now and look how fast it was

    I hope you come right with your insurance.. This is a big loss you've had. Holding thumbs everything you get paid out

    It's for this reason I don't declare an alarm system. It does not decrease your premium really and the consequences of it being off when your have a robbery are far greater
  18. Stretch
    I see I still qualify for 2022 as they are allowing times since 1 September 2019 and I ran my last marathon in the October
  19. Stretch
    I know how you feel lexx... Although different circumstances...I don't see myself running it again either. I'm just glad I got to experience 3 very special runs
  20. Stretch
    Terribly sad... Sounds like horrendous organisation though. There's a reason why there's so much emphasise on the kit etc you must have for ultra trail running

    If you click on a notification from the toast popup, it doesn't clear the red notification in the balloon. Very annoying for the OCD among us

    Rugby...

    Stretch replied to Eugene Oppelt's topic in Chit chat

    Should do all the warm up matches in Cape town, and then bam, send them up to altitude for the tests ????

    Aaah the old sun in their face excuse.... If the sun was in his eyes.. Maybe he shouldn't have been making a dangerous overtake manoeuvre
