@runalone - welcome back...

Thanks
I had to extend the distances a bit to reach new PB's.

Congratulations! That's a great time too :D Would be interested to know what breaks you took and what you ate during the 100k. Thank you. :D I can show you my plan here. https://s17.directupload.net/images/user/190527/temp/kerkohs5.jpg But it was only for rough orientation. The 40s breaks were main...

It's done. The 100k. Finally I was mentally ready for this distance. The goal was to achieve a time of less than 8 hours.

Thanks for congrats.

Once you can learn to rate up at 40 you will be much faster I suspect.

I feel better with a "lower" rate.

Close to my max (203)

Last row for the Holiday Challenge

21159m (1:58.8) - I had to break off the marathon-try (hip joint problems)

Cheers ;) Well done Nico, you're smashing it lately...PBd myself today over 60mins although rather more modestly! That said, I've struggled mentally lately so am very relieved to break through 15800m finally, which I knew I could do despite that little voice in my head telling me to stop > 10000m a...

Sub1:20h is not so important for me (for now). I would rather be interested in sub2:48h at the Marathon.

Soft PB but a PB nonetheless (2nd ever attempt at the distance)...was going to do this last night but bailed at 5K. Felt much better today, even though I had cider at lunchtime. :D More there... http://i1070.photobucket.com/albums/u488/zamm0/IMG_0418_zps3fq2ozje.jpg?t=1481999419 Congrats. Good resu...
