So today was the day for my first 10k race, ever!! I went with a lovely lady from my running club, for support. I had been told this 10k in Lulworth in beautiful Dorset was going to be so sceanic. It was beautiful I can't deny , but so hilly lol !! I can laugh about it now, and maybe pick a less undulating route for my second time out !! But pleased I have bridged the gap between 5 and 10 k. Happy Running everyone !!

Well done! I love Lulworth but have only walked there! It is certainly very, erm, undulating!☺ Rest up well!

Well done Susie! My first (and only, so far) 10K race was extremely hilly too! I hope you weren't disappointed! I know I was a bit. Massive congratulations!

Thank you Sarah, I had to talk to myself several times to mentally keep strong. But really glad on reflection I've done it. I need to pick more carefully next time !

Congratulations! I have started to distrust the word 'undulating' in any race description :D

I used to live in Dorset. Lulworth is lovely but the coastline is very steep in places. Well done !
