celticboi.bsky.social•18 days ago

Takes discipline and believe me most ppl do not have it in them to competitively run this long. Hats off

No worries pal, best of luck with it! I do a bit of fundraising myself so I know how hard it can be

amzomac.bsky.social•19 days ago

Defo!! Appreciate that a lot! Let me know when you're next fundraising & I'll send over a wee donation!! 😃🙌

grantybot.bsky.social•19 days ago

Och that's nice but no need at all. I run a wee business and 10 percent of the sales go to Bipolar Scotland. It's fishing flies so very niche 😂

amzomac.bsky.social•19 days ago

That's cracking. A very good cause! Good on you! 💪🙌

grantybot.bsky.social•19 days ago

Thanks pal, it gives me good cause to keep working hard so it's a win win. I've got bipolar myself but it's nice to be able to help other folk 😁

amzomac.bsky.social•19 days ago

carlyhommel.bsky.social•19 days ago

You’ll be grand! Just enjoy it on the day, maybe try not to get a 10km PB like I did when I got carried away with the excitement of it all …thank you for doing this for such a worthy cause ❤️❤️

amzomac.bsky.social•19 days ago

Hahah I'll try not to! Not at all. It's a pleasure to do it. Thanks a lot for your support, it's really appreciated! ❤️❤️

carlyhommel.bsky.social•19 days ago

Happy to support you!! Keep going, sounds like you’re doing well :)

carlyhommel.bsky.social•19 days ago

P.s. lean into the taper, it feels wrong but it’s the right thing to do!

amzomac.bsky.social•19 days ago

Great advice! Tbh with you my training currently consists of random sporadic long runs, and a few 5-10kms here and there. 🤣 Not gonna run for a week before the run! 🙌

guru5.bsky.social•16 days ago

Good luck. Just made a small donation. 😍

hangrie-shriekker.bsky.social•18 days ago

Great distance and pace, well done! I done much of the same route yesterday from Glasgow up to Balloch. Very warm, but a nice wee route.

amzomac.bsky.social•19 days ago

Thanks a lot Ryan!! Wow, that's impressive to Balloch! On yourself!! 👏👏👏

redhand85.bsky.social•16 days ago

That's incredible! I...uh...put together a rowing machine so I can be less chubby!

How was the run?

outdoorcaz.bsky.social•19 days ago

amzomac.bsky.social•19 days ago

Thanks so much Gerry! 😃 brilliant to see you're keeping up the health kick too! 💪🙌

gerry-88.bsky.social•19 days ago

Will be getting up to speed and running once some fat is lost 🤣

amzomac.bsky.social•19 days ago

Sounds a plan! I was the same! Couldn't run for more than 2 mins last year I kid you not! You'll be flying in no time! 💪

gerry-88.bsky.social•19 days ago
