Started an endurance group ride this morning but had to hop off after 40mins for a toilet break, was 0% chance of catching the peloton again so binned it and did SST (long) workout while going up Ventop.

I think if you look at Garmin Connect online (web browser) itâll show you the 25m âestimatedâ splits, so you can get an idea of the 100m times and where you tail off etc.
I do the first 50m too quick, middle hundred too slow, then speed up over the last 50m

Possibly one for the rant thread. I like most people I imagine found a brand of shoes I liked and just keep buying the same ones. For me its Saucony Ride (sometimes Jazz). The last couple of pairs I have owned havent lasted at all. Current ones I bought them in June last year, I have only run a handful of times in them, although I wear them a lot for dog walking and walking to the shops.
The front sole has completely worn away and the backs have fallen apart in side and now the plastic bit sticks out and digs in my heel.
They also used to be reduced regularly, but now they are over ÂŁ110. Dont really want to spend a ton on some shoes that are going to fall apart in months with little use. But at the same time dont really want to go through the rigmarole of trying different brands.
Nice day up here so tried out my shin/ankle over 3k. Must have been pent up frustration from the past weeks of doing nothing as got a bit carried away and did a PB 1k and mile 
Could feel my ankle but it wasnât hurting, if that makes sense so will stretch and ice like mad and hope it holds up.
If the storms donât reach us will try and very slow 5k in a few days.

8k or so jog around the lanes testing out the k tape again, seems to be helping. Minor interruption to move a stable roof (ironic) from the road to the verge.

Easy HM as I was pacing my PT friend. She is a determined and fit women but barely runs, 5km a week to every other week, however trains in the gym alot. Shes been on quite a few 100km plus rides with me and has never struggled. She wanted to see if she could do a sub 2hr HM. Furthest shes run is about 13km. I knew she was probably capable of well under 2 so set off at 5:05km pace, she works in miles and didnât realise what was quite happening pace wise until about 14 km in. Bit of encouragement and pushing, got her in, in just under 1:46. Very pleased and was really nice to able to help someone else achieve something.
