Has anyone ran Chicago marathon? I was planning this event to be my 250th marathon but am a tad behind schedule. Will actually be my 240th. Any tips welcomed

Southampton Marathon tomorrow am. That will be marathon 216. Then Brighton marathon next week. Done all 10 Brighton Marathons so got to keep going!

Truly awesome Dazza - 50 miles on your own in this weather is amazing. Even though I have run more than 200 marathons, only done 2 ultras & they were 30 milers. I really really would not want to do what you have done. You are well bonkers 🤣

On June 20th which is the longest day of the year, this year - I am running 24 miles in 24 hrs. Not too difficult. But the challenge is to run 1 mile every hour on the hour for 24 hours. Should be fun?

3:59.01 for me which I was very pleased with. Fast times are behind me, as I am running 100 marathon races in 100 weeks. This was the 54th in week 54. Next week Vienna!

Certainly an experience this morning! Never ran a marathon with so many laps. What kept me sane was the iPod. I don’t tend to use them for marathons as there is always so much going on & views to look at, but in the bowl of The Velothon it was pretty samey. Still it was only 3 minutes or so till...

Tomorrow morning at Preston Park is The Velothon Marathon - where some 100 or so nutters will be running 26.2 miles around the cycle track from 9am ......... 72.5 times around the track. It will certainly be my most unusual marathon to date, Marathon 133 here I come. If in the area in the...

This morning I ran Sussex Trail event - The Hard 13 from Clayton, up to South Downs Way, east to Housedon Farm & back. Was sunny & very warm out there. Finished 22nd in 2:10. The guy who was out front, by some way, collapsed about 200 yards from the finish. May have been dehydrated but plenty of...

enjoyed the Worthing 1/2, first 7 miles round the town, then 3 miles out & back. Cold & breezy but very flat. Did in 1:40. Garmin said 13.2m. Good training run for #92 marathon in 2 weeks. Well done Worthing, you put on a good event

Ran 16m this am. Lots of runners out there today. You won't be alone!

Today there were 109 runners at Hove Prom, 323 Preston Park & 432 Hove Park = 864. Will be interesting to see how numbers fair next Saturday when we will have Bevendean as well.

21:53 for me at Preston Park today (bang on average) Long slow run tomorrow Anyone training for Worthing Half Marathon (next month?) And don't forget the inaugural Bevendean Park run is next week - well slippy & slidy :-)

18 years since I last ran the Hangover 5. Be interesting to compare times!

Anyone running Hangover 5 this morning?

Well done. That hill at the end was tough! 1:46 for me was pleasing, but raced a lady up that last hill, she out out sprinted me & then did a second lap!

hello from the marathon thread - as this weekend, I'm stepping down. Preston Park run tomorrow & Sussex Half Marathon on Saturday. There is a marathon (twice round), but using the 1/2 as a training run for Dublin marathon in 2 weeks time. So what runs are my fellow NSC runners doing this weekend?

Cheers. After a quick breakfast am off for a 21 mile training run around our beautiful city & beyond. Marathon 90 is calling - Dublin next month. Indeed if anyone is training for a marathon or has entered one let us know on the Marathon thread! Happy running peeps...

did my inaugural Hove seafront 5k. Usually run Preston Park or Hove Park. Pleased I did as got my best time in 7 years, 20:45. Ok it was flat, weather conditions fab, but when you are 48 years old, I'll take it!

Some good times today. A more leisurely 21:23 for me today at Hove Park, but I had ran a marathon last Monday.
