What a week! 2 x 5k on Monday and Wednesday getting under 29 mins for the first time. Then today (Friday) I’ve run my longest run yet - 9.2k at a respectable pace of 6:03 min/km. and I’ve enjojed each and every run in the glorious Wiltshire countryside. Feeling like the Longleat 10k is now possible in two weeks time.
