Just wanted to throw a quick thank you to @lunge who very kindly sorted me a pair of his old trainers for a fiver last year when I started dabbling in parkruns and some running. Since then I’ve done numerous parkruns, a 10k, a half marathon, and as of yesterday my first marathon in Manchester. Managed it in 4:04, really wanted to go sub 4, but had a rotten cold all week and heart rate flew up to 175 right out the gate and I couldn’t hold my desired pace after mile 20.
Slept terribly and really struggling to walk, but already looking for another marathon to get sub 4!
Thanks again Lunge, you’ve caused no end of pain for me by sorting me those Nikes!
