Today I entered my first 10k race - Two Tunnels in Bath. Loved every second and ran the whole distance. I am so in love with running ๐โโ๏ธ ๐..

I'm Birmingham but have entered what looks like a nice race/run being held in Shifnal end of September and when I saw your name I wondered if you might be interested.
Ah thanks! I'll be back in the land of cuckoo clocks by then unfortunately, but the lanes around Shifnal are great for running, so have a good race ๐
Hiya. Yes there is 4 races in the series. This was the final race of 2018! Iโll definitely be doing all 4 next year (the 4 medals slot together to make a pyramid - very cool!). Itโs such a great route Iโd definitely recommend giving it a go!! ๐
Hmmm yes. After my 8k run the weekend before last my back felt sore. I decided it was best to rest for a week as I knew I had this race coming up. I shouldโve done a 9k last weekend! Went out for a 5k and 6k during last week and bit the bullet and went for the 10k today!
Amazing run - well done you! So pleased for you. Youโre way ahead of me now! After my dramatic fall (in fact I had two) just over a week ago Iโm on holiday in a very hilly area so the runningโs on the back burner until I get home a week today. Hopefully two weeks off wonโt be too detrimental to my fitness - although lots of food and drink might be ๐! Anyway good on you - onward and upward. ๐ ๐โโ๏ธ โฃ xx
Sorry to hear about your fall ๐ฑ. I missed that!! But have a fab holiday. Two weeks off wonโt affect your fitness and youโll be back on it before you know it. Take care ๐๐
Fabulous, well done you! I did the May 6th 10k two tunnels event and wound have loved it except for the fact it was the first really hot weather we had had, and I hadnโt up to that point trained in the heat, so it was a struggle and I only managed to do it in 1hr 16mins so you did flipping brilliantly - I am so in awe!!!!! ๐โโ๏ธ๐๐ ๐. Well done you, bask in that wonderful achievement and enjoy flashing your bling, you deserve it! ๐
Thank you Fionn. Sorry to hear your experience of the Two Tunnels wasnโt so great. We had the perfect day yesterday. It was warm but not hot so running in the Tunnels was lovely. Amazed at my time, if Iโm honest!! ๐
I really loved the event, just not the heat. Iโll do it again one day and beat my time ๐. Relish do such a great job of organising these events. Iโm doing their Killerton trail 10k next month - ulp! ๐ฌ๐ณ.
