Lovely morning for a 10k

That was a bit of a battle, especially the last kilometre...but it's done. Now all I need to do is keep up the momentum 😳! 2 weeks to go before the 10K race...should I just do short, faster runs now, or go for 2x5K runs and another 10k next week? Advice will be gratefully received 😎. P S takes me nearly 90 mins to do the 10k, so very much a 🐌. Happy running everyone πŸŒ»πŸ™‚

Snails unite!

All the training plans say take it back in last two weeks...so drop back to your 5ks...

See for example

I like that thought - 5Ks it is, maybe will factor in a few short, not steep hills πŸ˜³πŸ™‚

Well Granz! Yes maybe some shorter runs prior to your race.There’s no stopping you now! πŸ‘πŸ‘

And 10k race for me on April 7th. I'm doing 5k max this week and no speed work as I don't want to risk tweaking a muscle before the big day., so I'll be marshalling parkrun on the 6th to help stay in the groove.

Good luck with your 'race' day!
