9k - wow!

Finally managed to get out last Sunday and actually do a comfortable 9k. I have been struggling a bit lately and the 9 week plan has spread out a little, but I am now feeling much more confidant I will do my 10k next week.

I possibly could have gone on after 9, but my planned route had been disrupted by a load of caravans, tents and dogs around my usual field so I had to improvise and in the end I decided there is only so many times I can be bothered to run around the little lake so I stopped at 9.

Never mind, I hope the caravans will have gone next week so I can do my planned 10k route without worrying!

Got my intervals and hills to do this week, then bring it on!

There - I’ve made my commitment to the world now, so no backing out.....

Once you’ve done 9k you’ll have no problem with the 10k Barbie. Stretching the plan out to suit you is a great idea.
