What happens when you add 8.5 to 3.8 BLING!

I ran 12.3km today! Not in one go but split between a santa ๐ŸŽ… scramble (with inflatable obstacles and bling at the end ) and a gentle 1 hour jog in the dark.

I wasn't fussed about distance during the long jog, I just wanted to find a pace I could live with and maintain for 1 hour. And I was only 1.5k away from doing 10k... ๐Ÿ˜ธ

Back to C25k consolidation runs before I think about an attempt on 10k+ ๐Ÿ˜ธ

The long jog went well until the last 15 minutes where I could happily have stopped but I don't know if I'd have got going again.

Fab bling! And a really good time for your gentle jog too... 10k is just around the corner! Good luck ๐Ÿ˜Š

That's just what I said to myself when I saw the distance logged on Strava!

Easy peasy! Right? ๐Ÿ˜ธ

Haha! Thatโ€™s amazing Katnap! The Santa scramble wasnโ€™t enough of a fix ...you run junkie! Yes, Iโ€™m finding the path to 10K much more smooth than the path to 5K, just shows... you nearly did it in an evenings jog ๐Ÿ˜ Fab stuff. โšก๏ธโšก๏ธ

The Santa scramble sounds like fun! I wouldn't have had any energy to go on another run that day - that 10k is nearer than you think Katnap! Well done. Lovely medal too.
