Re: New age group:new targets
The image hasn't come through for some reason Philip. Also, you seem to be seen a s a new user on the forum with just three posts. Have you reset your details or re-registered recently?

Re: New age group:new targets
Hi Jon
In early September I changed my password for FS: big mistake, because the new password malfunctioned and I couldn't get back in with my old password either.
My only option was to to re-register as a new member. So I now have 2 user names: the old one "Pepe" and the new one "Philip". Is there any way I can discard my new one and get back to the old one?.
I deleted my new post because it contained information that I hadn't intended.
Regards,
Philip

Yes please. If you could do that, that would be fine. I managed an improvement of 49m on the previous world record for 30 minutes in my age group.
It’s been a good month so far

Must be getting harder, so 2 a week apart is beyond astounding.

Re: New age group:new targets
Hot of the press - he has done it again at the Pan Pacific Masters Games on the Gold Coast, Australia. Young Philip has set a new world record in the 2000m mens 90-94 lightweight category. The old record was set nine years ago and the young gun has lowered it by a second, stopping the clock at 8.43.06.
Sadly I couldn't attend the Games this year with too much work on but a great venue and in real life racing.

Re: New age group:new targets
Day 2: Pan Pacific Masters Games
The good news continues as I bettered my 1K WR by 2.4 seconds (Now 4:12.0)
Also I improved my WR 1 minute distance from 263m to 279m
I had very flattering treatment from all and sundry, being the oldest competitor and there’s no doubt I’ll be back in two years when Panpacs are held again.
I’m sorry Lesley wasn’t able to make it to the Games this time and many thanks to Plummy and Strider for your comments.
Where to now ? Well, I’ll just keep plugging away at the Nonathlon and the CTC’s and maybe a shot at the FM WR in the New Year.

Re: New age group:new targets
That 1 min increase is huge! Only 100m and FM not yours now!
