Done this run in my 5k training. This time felt so different. I did struggle for the last 3 mins. Nearly came to a stop. Think the 20mile bike ride yesterday might have somthing to with it.

Which week are you on in Bridge to 10K? Week 2 is a 3, 5 and the 6K long run?

I'm doing the zenlabs app it's x3 15min runs. Don't know why there is a 2.5min difference as I did run for the full 45 mins according to my timer on watch

Personally, I'd take a struggle that took me 8.5k in sub-5 ks :-)

I think I used Zenlabs to get to 10k as this forum hadn’t been built at the time.

I couldn’t go at your pace bike ride, or no bike ride!

We’re you fully hydrated?

I think so. I zip at water all day every day. I think it was a case of I knew it was coming to an end soon and my ass of all things was hurting. Putting that down to the seat on the bike. I did have a 1hr of strength and conditioning last night with trainer and he didn't let up. Next run is Thursday and hopefully it will be better.

Other factor is that it was a forest Park, I prefer out in the open as I think the breeze etc helps me better with breathing. Or Im just over thinking it all and should just be proud that I've came this far and still loving it.
