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

When you’re a consistent 60 mile a weeker (sessions and all), absolutely full time “athlete” (cough), living with your actual coach - I’d be looking for a bit more than a 24 min parkrun….

And that's with carbon plated Vaporflies too...

She not into those ASICS speed shoes she bought then? Actually, were they gifted?! Can't remember.
I just read her post, she's got the hump it wasn't a PB on Strava and she was expecting one. Wonder if she's expecting another in tomorrow's half?

 

[flyscraper]

I missed this the other day. Hate this smug grin. And with that giant lip sore She can't go a day without posting some stupid selfie, even with that on her mouth.

I'm having a major rethink everyone. I think we have got her all wrong and really she's fighting a terrible and debilitating neck problem. She clearly can't even hold her head up straight, ever.

Absolutely. My 8 year old runs a faster parkrun.

What half is she doing tomorrow?

 

[PawsDog]

Why is she randomly going balls out for a 5km PB when mid marathon ‘block’?

 

[Lemming312]

Is she doing a half tomorrow? I thought her next half was Cardiff?

 

[wtfiswrongwithfolk]

She better not be at GNR or I’ll be tempted to trip the bleep up like I should have when I overtook her in London

 

[Camperfan]

Sorry my mistake, she said tomorrow's long run on her post. I assumed Cardiff was tomorrow since they were in Swansea (assumed dumping off of Harri so they could both run it, but since she seems to be child free this eve guess that part did happen!).

 

[oregano_project]

duck me - they’ve claimed Parkrun!

 

[PawsDog]

I manage 2/3 of the Park Run You Tube. Genuinely can not fathom what world they live in. Discussion in the car literally like they are elite professional athletes. It’s Parkrun!

“I was so nervous for parkrun I threw up” is the t-shirt we all need

 

[Runhappy]

Bloody hell if she's this nervous about parkrun, no way will she start the marathon in a month's time

 

[WeepingCassandra]

Annnnd that’s why I stopped setting unachievable goals for my running!

Why is Kelly so obsessed with this 60 mile week? Doesn’t matter how many miles you do if they’re all bleeping junk

 

[Lastqueenofscotland]

Throwing up before parkrun is ridiculous as is 60 mile weeks, I’ve just done the last long run of a really good training block for London, I’m expecting a 3:30-3:40 time, all my long runs and races in it point toward that, my highest milage week was 45. I’ve made the mistake of chasing high milage before and I do far too much junk and am too tired to do big sessions at the effort and pace they need to be

 

[fxckrxnning]

I know people like to hate on cattherunner, but instagram bullshit aside, she’s running 40 mile weeks and ran a BQ in her second ever marathon. Kelly could learn a few things from her fellow insta-wankers…

But Cattherunner is clearly naturally talented. She's run some of her BQ standard PBs on 40km/25 mile weeks (and admittedly inconsistent training) which is simply unachievable for most people (definitely Kelly) and just pure genetic luck. Agree that 40 mile weeks with quality runs would see Kelly progress much faster though...

I'm more concerned that she doesn't know what Harry calls Matt's parents?!?
