Fastest 10k yet!

13.02 km01:08:465:48 min/kmStrava

My last run before the Big Half this weekend, and it’s the first time my plan has set me a marathon pace long run. I’m aiming for 5.15 m/km at the moment and that seemed to go pretty well!

I opted for a simple route round and round the park because it was so wet and I didn’t want to have to navigate around cars.

Kept my stride length about normal but put extra effort into lifting my knees and trying to be fluid.

I the process, got a 10k PB too! Roll on my first (non-Parkrun) event on Sunday πŸŽ‰

I'm running the London Marathon – it would be awesome if you would sponsor me to raise funds for the National Autistic Society.
