Woohoo - 12K

[alisonx]

Well pleased with myself...a well paced throughout 12k completed last night. It wasn't planned but i was feeling good so thought i would push myself a little. Followed by a lovely hot bath when i got home and a cheeky creme egg

Its so nice that the dark is setting in much later, I got to take in the scenery a bit more, though the Park is lit beautifully in the dark so either way is wonderful. Really enjoy my Thursday evening runs, i'd be totally at a loss without them

Really good article. Thank you! 😊

Hi Flara - Thursday night runs are my child free long ones the motivation is needed for the getting up in a morning to run on other days and weekends! I made progress this weekend so fingers X

Great article thanks Flara...I'm going to write out a plan and stick it on my fridge - and cross off the days achieved.

Top running! Now that you have reached 10K and gone beyond, are you now planning to go further, maybe a half marathon?

Like you I have reached 10K and run this distance a couple of times now, so a bit more consolidation and a 10K race, then I think it should be on to a Half.

Cheers

I am considering a half....but not quite yet! Just slowly building up with no pressure or goal until i feel ready to take the plunge

Woo hoo from me too Alison! 👌💪😀. Great running! 😊xx

[over61andstilltrying Graduate10]

Amazing! Wish I could run that much. You deserved that bloody creme egg!!

Never done an evening run. I do the early mornings which I guess are similar but backwards 🤦🏻‍♂️.

It nice in the early morning. Almost peaceful say for the running. 😂

So what’s your aim next??

[alisonx Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

i used to do all my runs in the morning - i loved it. Winter made me change and Thursdays are my child free night...what better way to spend it

Plan to get back to early morning runs now it's light again.

I'm just consolidating 10k and pushing a little every so often. maybe a half marathon in the distant future but not just yet. I am just enjoying my personal mini challenges

[Hidden in reply to alisonx]

Yeah early morning runs are great! Haha a cheeky run while you’re child free. Sounds perfect! That’s one reason I have to go out at 5:30am.

[Dexy5 Graduate10]

You’ve just proved the ups and downs of running. Wonderful running to 12k , well done.

Brilliant alison what a fantastic distance! 👏🏻

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10]

Wowsers Alison, well done! 12k is getting seriously serious! 👏👏💪💪👊👊🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

You certainly deserved that Creme Egg. Would it be wrong to say that I eat them in twos? I could manage three, but that would be rather obscene! 😅😳

[alisonx Graduate10 in reply to cheekychipmunks]

Thanks cheeky. I could also easily take on 3 but i have a sense of shame that prevents me from doing it haha! It would be obscene you are right 😅

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10 in reply to alisonx]

But doable nonetheless! 😅😅

[BaddieThePirate Graduate10]

12km is great, well done! 👍

[Deals1 Graduate10]

[Glossy Graduate10]
