11k

[Visionon]

Ran 11k today, which is the farthest I have run to date. This also included a PB of 51:06 for 10k, which was nice.

Weather was great apart from the wind which was particularly testing over the last 2k. Also saw some wildlife, a muntjack deer, which I scared to death as I ran past.

Need a good couple of days off now, as my lower calf is grumbling. I never seem to be able to get rid of all of the little niggles!

Happy running

Thanks Fabulous, hope I haven't over done it.... again!

[Fabulous450 Graduate10 in reply to Visionon]

Rest up Visionon! You know how best to recover. You did a great job! 🤗❤️

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10]

Huge well done to you! And with this weather too. 👏👏💨💨💦💦 That’s a mighty respectable time for 11k and congratulations on your 10k PB. You’re miles quicker than I am, so I enjoy reading gazelle posts hoping that I’ll get a bit faster by osmosis! 😅

Thanks Cheeky, thankfully I didn't have to contend with rain as well today.

Interesting what you say about not many gazelles🦓 posting anything on the C25K or Graduate10 posts on Healthunlocked, so it's nice to hear from one or two, yes 🏃 running around 50 or 25 minutes for a 10K or 5K respectively could be considered as just getting into the gazelle🦓category. 😊

[Visionon Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

Looks like a Zebra but I'll take it 😀

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to Visionon]

It is a Zebra but it represents a gazelle.

[Rebounder in reply to cheekychipmunks]

Same here on these gazelles - let’s hope it rubs off! But well done

[JonathanP Graduate10]

Well done - fantastic time! 😀 Now take it easy!

[Visionon Graduate10 in reply to JonathanP]

Thanks Jonathan, yeah I need to!

Were you in a rush to get home???😂😂😂 51 minutes for 10K is very impressive. Great run.

[Visionon Graduate10 in reply to Pete1w]

Always in a rush and too competitive for my own good. Cheers!

[Pete1w in reply to Visionon]

Sounds like me. Although I'm not in your league speed wise. Take care not to pick up those injuries and remember there is much joy to be had by slowing things down. It's not easy running slow as I found out but it helps on the long runs.

[Katnap Graduate10]

I'm jealous of your pace! Great running! What's your next target?

[Visionon Graduate10 in reply to Katnap]

To try to remain injury free, and also enter a 10K race.

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to Visionon]

Good luck with your 10k race (when you get one)! 😁
