To reduce the amount of insider information I keep to myself I've signed up for a Concept2 account and will be logging my rowing workouts there while the runs aren't happening

Current form on the rowing machine. With my case of shin splints I've had to stop with running for cardio currently. Doing rowing machine and spinning to keep up

@Tarl i'm clearly way off track, but i would say you're quite far off (Imho)...what happens if both of us don't get there this year? since this market has only 3 traders i propose extending the deadline to like March 2026 and changing the resolution rules to allow for resolving whoever got closest). i'm fine with agreeing to n/a it as well although that will be unsatisfying

I plan on resolving this as it is written. Had to take it easy on the running recently because of shin splints but I've kept up with the cardio. I still feel confident in making a sub-45 10k before the end of the year

If you think I'm far off, bet against me 😉

@Tarl i'm not sure what to bet if my bet is "both of us won't do it by 1st Jan 2026"

@diadematus my market would resolve no, I guess I could make it clearer with failure to do the time by market close results in a NO

@Tarl lemme collect a little mana then ;)

@Tarl regardless, I am going to recommit myself to my goal and give it one last shot at consistency for like 8 weeks, before i give up. so this market is an easy NO

My bout of shin splints seems to be letting off. Got an ok pace in

Finding the pace. Quite tough put possible

Back down to a decent pace, now there's just cutting another 40 seconds per kilometer

@Tarl i did a 5k time trial-ish at almost the exact day and i'm not far off

First run in a while: 5k in 30 min

@diadematus seem to have injured or damaged one knee. Having some pain while putting weight on it. Will probably abstain from any real running until I've had at least ~2 weeks of the pain disappearing. Time to load up on the "No" position

@Tarl great news for me since i'm more focused and consistent than ever meanwhile ;).

progress last week @tarl? i traveled to a high altitude place in my country and still did a very enjoyable 21k...starting to feel very good about my consistency

@diadematus Nothing new. Currently getting ready for a move so will probably be bad with consistency for two weeks.

Today: 5k on treadmill, 25m51s

@Tarl how fast is that for you? that is close to my PB!

@diadematus for current form it's good. Looking back through my Strava I can see that I did a 5k in 24m41s in August last year so should hopefully be back at that pace in a couple of weeks
