Wigan 10K 2017 - New PB!

[Tanethra]

Completed my 2nd Wigan 10K yesterday and posted a PB in the process of 1:01:17! Beating my previous best by 2mins.

Didn't think I would manage it after a slight pull on a muscle on the left of my lower back after playing squash on Thursday! Struggled in the first 2k till my endorphin's kicked in then I settled into a good rhythm and enjoyed the run. I'll crack that hour mark soon.

Post race my back decided to pay me back but I can move about but twisting round is a bit sore. So a week off for me from running and plenty of heat therapy via hot water bottles.

Here's a link to relive my run relive.cc/view/1165964585 and a pic. Really nice bling this year too

Whoop whoop! Congratulations, that's a great time and a fab improvement. You must be thrilled. Lovely bling too 🎖🎖🎖

Forgot to say well done!

Cheers Irishprincess I am very pleased with the time it just seemed easier than last year. Ran with my wife and she knocked 4mins off and was only 30sec behind me! In fact it took me to the 3-4k mark before I caught up to her. Reckon I'll be chasing round after her soon

Wow! Go your wife too! Enjoy your chasing 😏

Congratulations on your time. Not far off breaking through the 1 hour barrier. Nice piece of bling👍. Looking forward to doing a couple of 10km races myself next year.

Wow, well done, and a fancy bit of bling to hang round your neck.
