Hi all. As promised Cheekychipmunks here is the photo of me with my medal enjoying a cup of water and free cake afterwards I just couldn’t manage the free Beer 🍺 . I met MutleyShuffle before the start which was really nice. This one was a real toughie the hills were never ending and steep but got through it in the end with a New PB of 1hour 20 which carved 10mins 21secs of my first 10k race last month . After 2 really hilly 10k races my next one will definitely be a flat one. Hope you all have a good week πŸ€ͺπŸ˜…πŸ˜€πŸ‘

Great pace Runsome on a hilly course. That's a tiny piece of cake ;) Hope you have a bigger treat planned.

Wow check you out with your bling Runsome! Well done, especially tackling demon hills! πŸ‘πŸ‘ Even more impressive running it more than 10 minutes faster than your first one. However, you definitely deserve a flat one next time! πŸ‘πŸƒ

Glad you enjoyed your roast. Bet you couldn’t run 10k now! πŸ˜…

Hi Crawlhome thanks. yes they were brutal. I think MutleyShuffle has also posted about the hills. As for the cake I ate it so fast I had to watch my fingers πŸ˜€

Massive well done, Runsome! A great race time, you must be so chuffed! x

RunsomeGraduate10β€’ in reply toSadie-runs

Thanks Sadie-runs your right I am well chuffed, but it was only just over 2 seconds a k for a sub 1 hour, which would have been nice but I had given it my all. It will give me something to go for when I do my next 10kπŸ˜€

I am a confused regarding your time Runsome, you say you ran it in 1.20 but the photo shows a pace of 5.51/Km and a time of 1h.0m???.

That's what I thought! Did you mean 1 hour 20 seconds, Runsome? If so that's AWESOME! 😁

Well Done Runsome, bling and cake, what more could you ask for? Well beer but you turned that down.

You definitely deserve a flat run now. πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸ‘πŸ…

Yes Dexy5 the bling and cake made it all worthwhile. That’s the first time I’ve turned down beer though. Just need to find a nice flat one now πŸ˜€
