Full hour run today (more or less)

This time was almost all running with a 1 min walk break in between sets. :) Distance today was 9.86km. Not quite 10, but closer than before. The second last 5k were killers and then it got easier in the last 5 (maybe the endorphins were cascading by that point). I'm a bit surprised in this second last week at the jumps: Monday was two 22 min sets, Wed was two 25 min sets and today was two 30 min sets. Friday will be 60 min straight. I guess they are within acceptable ranges as they are part of the C210 program :). On to 60 minute Friday!

Oooooh...........you can almost touch it, Decker!

I think you showed incredible restraint by not pushing on to the 10k on this run.

Any day now............

I really wanted to keep going, but both your words and Floss' words of wisdom prevailed! :)

I struggled too but the shins were starting to get painful at the very end so that helped make the decision😀

Well done! Good idea to stop if your shins were sore. If you'd carried on your next 10k would have been a while away, until you recovered. This way, you'll be there very soon!
