There was a humourous point during the run. I saw another runner running towards me in the distance and decided Iโd up the pace, as you do, and blow me didnโt he do the same ๐
Said our good mornings as we passed then back to normal pace lol
Wow, brilliant- very impressed. I am still just consolidating 30 min runs & aiming for a park run.
I love the speeding up for another runner! I had a speed up moment yesterday so I didn't get run over in the dark - I felt like I had another runner's legs for a few seconds. ๐
Tbh, Iโm surprising myself Elfe5. If youโre feeling good, why not go for it. Iโve registered for a 10K Park Run on Jan 21st so itโs something to aim for... itโs the way I motivate myself ๐
Go for the Parkrun, youโll be surprised how quick the time goes and, for me, I found it easier having people around me ๐
Nicely done Ted! Enjoy the journey to 10k, I loved it even more than the journey to 5k. I love the speed up as passing another runner ๐, I think we've all done that!
I was advised that the thought of doing these longer distances is harder than actually running it...and they were right ...๐ Believe in yourself, nice and steady.
