a Question when should i quit my attempts.?
Knowing that my body is no longer the young boy that it was my desire is to reach 52 attempts but should i continue until i have 52 completions of the full network which at earliest would be 65 attempts tried.? or should i just keep going to my body or desire gives it up.? Opinions welcome!

You are the boss of you. I don't think anyone's going to catch you up in numbers of attempts any time soon!palkanetoijala31 wrote:Knowing that my body is no longer the young boy that it was my desire is to reach 52 attempts but should i continue until i have 52 completions of the full network which at earliest would be 65 attempts tried.? or should i just keep going to my body or desire gives it up.?

My body was way past it's prime before I did my 1st full network in my mid 40's... Only wish I had found out about the GWR for full network 20 years ago...
So there you go Andi if I can still struggle round you have years ahead of you yet...

oh i still enjoy it mostly im enjoying the solo attempts or slower ones so i keep going to i really get bored of it.scrxisi wrote:Yeah, it's down to how you feel. Interested to know though, given you are asking the q: do you still enjoy going out and aiming for 52 as much as you did or has it started to feel like a bit of a chore?

Maybe if you didn't do them as often as you have been doing then it would give your body chance to recover and you may actually start to enjoy them more again.
I never fully understood why you wanted so many completions... surely the main aim should be the GWR and you have that...

I only ever had one and I'm more than happy with that. I don't need another one.Sam wrote:I never fully understood why you wanted so many completions... surely the main aim should be the GWR and you have that...

Andi just think of it like this... at your current completion rate (~50%) it will take 104 attempts to complete 52 times.
But I can't talk. At my current completion rate (~0%) it will take me an infinite amount of attempts to complete 1 time.
