UKC

Well?

In reply to Dominicandave: embarrassingly slow, probably 30 sec, 80 sec and about 3 or 4 minutes including rests... And yours?

In reply to Dominicandave: i wish i knew

In reply to Dominicandave:

Approximately:
100 climbs in about 2 hours
200 in about 5 hours
400 in about 10 hours

In reply to john arran: smart arse, lol.

In reply to Dominicandave:
Back in the day.........
11.8 for the 100
23.6 for the 200
51.2 for the 400

Then i discovered drink, drugs and women.

In reply to stonemaster: i dont know now but i remember county trials not being that much slower than 12 seconds, i think. 1986, does that sound right?

In reply to Dominicandave:

well a 100ft can be tied to 2 trees so as long as it takes to cut the wire and climb the trees. 200foot I think I needed a mast at the centre so it would take 20 minutes or so to put up the mast


400ft is too long without special mast or towers

In reply to Dominicandave: Wow! Sounds like you have winged feet in comparison.!

In reply to Dominicandave:

I can remember doing the 100 yards at school but broke the high jump record for the school age group, 3 ft 7 1/2 inches i think, can't remember the age but the record stood for about 3 or 4 years

In reply to Dominicandave: Definitely 100.

In reply to Dominicandave:

I think i used to be able to run 100m in 13 seconds when i was a nipper. Not sure about the other distances. Long jump was my thing, i could jump 5.20m when i was 15. Then I discovered booze.

In reply to Dominicandave:

Well; 100 - obviously

In reply to Dominicandave: I imagine most posters on ukc would be able to compete for their country but for some good reason.

In reply to Bulls Crack:

Oi, that's my cr*p joke!

In reply to Sir Chasm:

Yes and my reason is that I'm a lazy honky...

In reply to Dominicandave:

Despite being a club runner and training regularly on my local track, I don't think I have ever been timed for the 100 or 200 and only do timed 400s as part of a set of intervals like 20x400m.

In reply to Dominicandave: I've done an informal 100 and 400 (as part of track mile events) in about 17s and 78s respectively. I am useless over short distances.

In reply to Dominicandave: not been timed since I was a schoolboy in the 80's when I ran for a club (border harriers) Got 3AAA's grade 2 for 100m which if I remember was about 14 secs (aged 12) & 29. something for 200m about the same age? Time has blurred things!

In reply to Dominicandave: i timed my dog on the 100 meter track once.was about 6 seconds if i remember right

In reply to Dominicandave:

I think my fastest 100m was around 13.5 seconds, 200m was probably more like 30 and I don't think I ever managed to run 400m without dying!

In reply to Dominicandave:

100m in just over 11 sec, under 16
