Welshrunner, kelloggsontherun #12 Why so serious? Not off to war. It's all relative, let's bonk some more.

I don't know enough about diabetes but surely if you're running at your top pace (which she was for the first 5km or so) you're going to absolutely trash your blood sugars aren't you? So you'd want to go slow and steady even more?

Oh you may be on to something. That will be the excuse.

Can I just say I like her running vest?

I do too but she’s not a great ad for their company so they might not gift her anymore after this shit show (hopefully!)

That’s not her top pace don’t you know you tattle

I really want to write on one of their posts ‘how’s it gone? Can’t wait for an update!’ Heart heart

Will she make it under 4:30? Standing here in my sweaty kit unable to go and shower

You’ve probably got time to shower and dry your hair. I imagine she’s walking at this point!

I’m waiting to go to bed, it’s 11:20pm here in Aus

App says 0.1 mile left

Wonder if Tits will delete his last story. Looking amazing at 8 miles and keeping target pace. I want to laugh but truly it is actually tragic

 

[Wannabrunner39]

I bet whoever this second coach is that’s taken her on has watched this all unfold with horror . She’s probably mislead them into believing she was in 3.40 marathon pace and she is now pretty much an hour off this

my work here is done! Time to tackle some housework . Thanks for the banter all! It’s been a rollercoaster of emotions, some of us doubted ourselves at times ,however we supported each other as we always knew this was going to be the outcome . Trust the process you lovely lot!

She done

4:30

 

[Runin’ Wild]

She’s slowed right down as her mind is on excuses and not running,
Gain some respect and just admit it was a wank run

 

[Fifah1907]

4:30:19….wow

I actually feel for her. She has worked towards it. Just in totally the wrong way. How can you ignore the basics of marathon prep.

 

[PawsDog]

Am I right in thinking she’s now actually going backwards? The best she’s done is with Tits pacing her to just over 4 hours?

 

[runrun321]

Thank you all! I can now finally go to bed.

 

[Fifah1907]

Thank you all! I can now finally go to bed.

Sleep well! Hope you don’t bonk your sleep x

There are millions of people I feel sorry for. A deluded runner isn't one of them!

 

[bobbinz]

But it was a bloody lovely (paced and downhill) parkrun PB. What a memento from a 6 month block

 

[punter]

Don’t you worry guys. She will soon announce her Ironman that she has already been training for. Look forward to her running performance after she has been cycling and swimming!

Btw kudos to the 4:30 guesses!

 

[Wannabrunner39]

I mean there’s not a great deal of difference between an 8.30 mile marathon pace and a 10.19 one is there? It’s all relative right?!

 

[eyethinkyousuck]

Did they really, truly think that she was going to go sub 4 on her training?
