thewelshrunner & kellogs_ontherun #7 All in, smug grin, let’s manifest Boston by doing more colouring in

If Matt is pacing her at Amsterdam I pity anyone running near her. He will no doubt be filming her whilst also shouting at her constantly.
It would drive me bonkers if my faster partner did that to me, I would get frustrated at the fact he would be finding it easy and probably tell him to do one in the end and run his own race.

I don't think we need to worry about him pacing her. Based on his training, he's due for an injury any day now.

Probably both get injured before Amsterdam and dissappear for a few weeks then pretend the whole marathon plan never existed

 

[cambridge112211]

Wow. Just wow. Maybe he was hiding runs the week before, but if not that’s more than double the previous weeks already heavy mileage.

The shape of the graph let alone the mileage is a massive red flag

Yet we won’t hear anything about it, he’ll just casually vanish off the face of the earth for weeks/months and then come back with no word about it!

But yeah “I always like to share the ups and downs of my training” does he duck! And neither does she!

This is why my partner and I stopped running together. His encouragement when I was in the hurt locker would really set me off. Tbh, him just breathing the same air as me when I’m in the hurt locker is enough to set me off. I just need to be alone and grind it out.

He’ll still share it’ll just be different charts seeing action… like his riding and weight training

Just watched Matt's latest video. Impressively, he's more nauseatingly serious than usual. It's only running, FFS. Predictable excuses for not hitting sub-15 as well: unable to run with a group; maybe the shoes...

Blaming everything apart from overtraining then.

This is what I keep thinking, T1 is a serious issue and has a big impact on running. I listened to a podcast once with an actually sensible and talented runner with T1 who was hoping to achieve a specific time (maybe sub 3, I can't really remember but he was also closer to it being achievable than Kels) and saying how much T1 impacted his ability to do it because of having to monitor your bloods so much and it changing your options for fueling. It's not something to mess around with. I'd also say you probably need a coach who understands the impact it has.

Someone is getting injured soon. I'm surprised it hasn't already happened. I'm crap at being consistent with strength training but I do make an effort to do it because every time I try to push it and am not bothered with the strength stuff I get injured. All my best (which isn't that good) running has been when I've also been consistent with resistance training.

Can you remember what the podcast was? I'm fairly newly T1 and always looking for good role models!

 

[Runhappy]

Wow well done Kelly. Finally finding one day for quality time and an activity that revolves around one of your kids in September, after 7 weeks of school holidays, despite no work commitments

 

[hollyhocks]

Now if only she could put her phone down and not make her kids film her on their rare, fun outing together.

It was on Marathon Talk, the podcast isn't recording anymore but the episode is still there, someone called Scott Burrell.

I came here to say the same thing. How absolutely sad that she has to make a post about it. Everything is for the gram. Put your f-ing phone down and spend actual time with your kids. She disgusts me honestly.

 

[louise1976]

Looks like his going all in soon AGAIN

 

[hollyhocks]

Another sunny session and not a Buff in sight.

You beat me to it. He has no clue about preparing properly does he?!

Half expect him to run 5k of this 10km and bank a 5km pb from that

Relish Running Races

The Cheddar Gorge 10km is a closed road run down Cheddar Gorge, perfect for setting a new PB on what has to be one of the fastest 10km courses in the country.
