I think I actually managed to run faster in the last 4K of this cheeky little lunchtime 5k - probably because I forgot about the hill on the speed interval I had planned for the middle of the run, which I had to go up twice. Actually I could have avoided the hill and taken the lower track, but I just seem to be drawn uphill somehow 😜

Thanks - I’m pretty pleased with that time and I was supposed to be doing speed intervals. It would have been quicker without that hill. Twice! I like hills I think πŸ˜‚

Fantastic pace. You have really come along nicely lately. I lived in toy town for a year but don't recall a hill to be fair. I guess there is a bit of a mound in the nature park bit, was that where you meant? Actually now I think on it, that would be quite a useful little lump for running round. I do yoga on occasion in Camborne so could do a run before it.

Thanks for the feedback - it’s good to hear that I’m making progress! Yes it’s not really a hill but it’s certainly noticeable when your trying to sprint up it. If you ran round it a few times you’ll probably be glad of a lie downπŸ™‚

Brilliant run and fab time MadDave ! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

The slightest inclines feel like mountains when your legs are tired! Great run! πŸ‘ŸπŸ‘Ÿ
