RE: Robust August
Following the euphoria of London 2012 I thought it might be fun to see how we measure up to the super elite.
Have you ever timed your 'best' 800/ 400/ 200/ 100? I was 'disappointed' that the 5k/ 10k races weren't quicker. We've seen four sub-fifteen minute 5ks at Hove ParkRun in recent times.

When I was attending track sessions a few years back we used to do 200 metre intervals (with a 100m walk/ cooll down in between), timed by Sam. He used to growl the seconds at us as we cross the line. I think my best was about 30 seconds (I'd have to look back on here to be sure).

Anyway, I jacked that in as the bouncy track caused serious hamstring knack. I've not been back since.

The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph
