My fastest 10k so far

[Katnap]

Inspired by Jay66UK who seems to grow in running ability by the hour! 💪

1h 1m to do 10k during this 11k distance and mostly off-road. Beats my previous PB done at the Regency 10k race earlier this year by 2 minutes.

😸 Katnap 😸

Woo Katnap, speedster! 🏃🏃🏃 Well done! 👊👏🏃🎉

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to cheekychipmunks]

I'll get that sub 1hr 10k eventually?

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10 in reply to Katnap]

You certainly will! 👊😀

[Dexy5 Graduate10]

That’s very fast Katnap. You young things are doing so well. 🏃‍♂️⚡️

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to Dexy5]

UTS and Tailchaser are quicker...

Fitness wins over age!

[Pianism Graduate10]

Congratulations on a great run! Going from strength to strength.

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to Pianism]

Thanks Pianism! Sounds like Marple VRB get together is growing.

Hope to see you again at Lyme Park and Macc parkruns 😁

[Pianism Graduate10 in reply to Katnap]

Yes, indeed - looking forward to it.

[Granspeed Graduate10]

Perhaps it’s leading that C25k group, pushing you onwards! 😊 Speedy, speedy 🎉👏🏼🎉

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to Granspeed]

Train at slower speeds to go faster when you want to...

Sounds silly but it seems to work!

[BaddieThePirate Graduate10]

That is super zoomy, well done! 👏🏃😺

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to BaddieThePirate]

Its on a now disused railway track so it is pretty flat. Which helps!

[BaddieThePirate Graduate10 in reply to Katnap]

Sounds perfect.

[Wimborne]

Wow that’s some speed K 👏👏. What a great run. 😀🔥

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to Wimborne]

Ta! How's your recovery progressing?

[Wimborne in reply to Katnap]

Sloooooow !!!!!!

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to Wimborne]

😬 grrrr....are you able to do any cardio work? Rowing, cycling...?

[Wimborne in reply to Katnap]

Nothing 😢.

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to Wimborne]

You might have to dial it back a bit and do some C25K intervals.

Fingers crossed things improve soon.

[Wimborne in reply to Katnap]

Thank you. Please keep toes crossed as well for me 🦶 😀. I am seeing a sports physio in a 3 weeks. I will just have to huff and puff my way back to fitness and start again. It’s ok though. Done it once so can do it again. 👍🏃🏼‍♀️😀

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to Wimborne]

Yay! Can do attitude! That's what we like to see! 😁😁😁

[Sadie-runs Graduate10]

Woo hoo fantastic time, Katnap! 👏👏👏 I am impressed! My fastest 10k is 1:03, and to this day I don’t know how I managed that! Keep up the good training. 👍😊

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to Sadie-runs]

Thanks Sadie. Was your best time on your own or on race / group run?

[Sadie-runs Graduate10 in reply to Katnap]

On my own - not run a race yet! 😬

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to Sadie-runs]

Try a group fun run if you're up for it first. Sometimes it's annoying and sometimes the distraction takes your mind off how tired or hurt you feel.

Obviously, do what makes you feel happiest! 😁

[Sadie-runs Graduate10 in reply to Katnap]

Well...in for a penny, in for a pound, I actually entered a half marathon for Sept a few weeks ago! So I guess I’ll find out in September how I run with others! 😂😂😂

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to Sadie-runs]

Really? That's exciting 😁

I'm still toying with the idea of entering a HM. I know I can do the distance but I'm not convinced I can keep pace over that distance.

[Sadie-runs Graduate10 in reply to Katnap]

It is exciting! I have the opposite problem to you though - I am confident in my pacing, not convinced I can run that distance without falling apart! 😬😂 Well, I guess there is only one way to find out. x

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to Sadie-runs]

👏👏👏💪💪💪🏃🏃🏃🏅

[BaddieThePirate Graduate10 in reply to Sadie-runs]

Wow, good one!

[SaskAlliecat Graduate10]

Whoohoo! Go Katnap go!

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to SaskAlliecat]

I did sleep well that night! 😁

[JonathanP Graduate10]

Well done ! I think you may beat me to that sub 1 hour!😏

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to JonathanP]

Maybe. But I'm not planning on giving it another go this month.

[grumpyoldgirl]

That's one fast cat 💨

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to grumpyoldgirl]

Miaow!
