I’m imagining him like a Japanese soldier on a deserted island, still thinking the war is on

That’s a Tad bit crazy

Looks like he started in May2017 and hasn’t looked back since

One short break in April ‘23 when he went to Cancun

I can ask him when I next see him. All I have to do is stand in the right spot for about 30 mins in the morning and he’ll be along on schedule.

you could probably set your watch by him I reckon.

Wonder how fast he could run a marathon if he went for a time :thinking:

Might not translate into being able to go much quicker. His body may have simply adapted for that specific requirement.

That would be my expectation.

Cant see 4:42 marathons translating to a fast Marathon. He did throw a 4h12 in recently though. PR?

Joking… his Strava PR is 3h33m15s

1h41m Half

I saw something the other day about Strava’s planned IPO.

Apparently they’re expecting it to be valued at about $2.2Bn

And how much of their data is generated by people using Garmin devices :roll_eyes:

I’d estimate 50% of their uploads depends on Garmin.

Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a much higher percentage for premium subscribers

Quite a lot of activities have a new tag under them today saying Albert Parkrun etc and seems to go to a group, guessing it recognises the course :man_shrugging:t2:

Also saw one that wasn’t a parkrun but a trail challenge by a local running shop.

Mr and I both think the strava lawsuit is so they can prep to release their own hardware. It was my immediate thought when the lawsuit landed.

Possibly, but I can’t see them making inroads against the likes of Garmin and even Apple.
