Windmill remembrance 10k

[Runningroni]

My first ever organised event. Some of you will know I was anxious as a solo runner in a big crowd.

I really enjoyed it.

Even my non running husband is picking up the lingo. He posted on the family watsap, I got a PB.

Happy running

Thanks Al.

Congratulations Runningroni on your windmill remembrance 10k. Your husband must be listening more than you think and he must be so proud of you to share on the family what's app.

😊😊👏👏👏👏👏

Sometimes he gets a glazed look when I turn into run bore.

He came, held my coat, cheered me on and had a sausage sandwich for me on return. He is defo a keeper.

Well done on your first 10k race Runningroni - great that you enjoyed it and fab that you came away with a PB! 🙂 I think the extra adrenaline on race day and running with many others can often result in a good run? Here's to the next one...🙂🏅👏👏

[Katnap Graduate10]

Woo hoo! Well done Runningroni!

Who knows where this may lead. Tonight however an early night.

[BaddieThePirate Graduate10]

Glad you enjoyed it. Did you get bling? What was your PB?

[Runningroni Graduate10 in reply to BaddieThePirate]

Yes there was bling. 1 hour 8 mins and some seconds. Which is a whole minute and then some better than my previous attempts

[BaddieThePirate Graduate10 in reply to Runningroni]

That's brilliant, very well done 🏅🏃🏼‍♀️👍👏

[CandyCool Graduate10 in reply to Runningroni]

Wow that’s fabulous 👍🏻🎉🎉

[Runningroni Graduate10 in reply to CandyCool]

Thank you legs ache a bit today.

[linda9389 Graduate10]

Nice one! All that atmosphere running in a crowd, a bit of race magic and it's amazing what we can do. Congratulations on your PB, but what I'm most envious about is your family support/interest- that's gold dust 🙂

[Runningroni Graduate10 in reply to linda9389]

Agreed, today has been a red letter day. So loved it. Bed by 9 I think, poor old body just had it.

[M1ck]

Awesome 😎

[Runningroni Graduate10 in reply to M1ck]

I have had a fab day

[JonathanP Graduate10]

Well done RR! Great time for your first race!👍🎉😀

[Runningroni Graduate10 in reply to JonathanP]

Thank you. It feels great but body tired.

[TailChaser Graduate10]

Fantastic Roni! Let’s hope it’s the first of many 🤞 Congratulations on your PB 👏👏👏🎉

[Runningroni Graduate10 in reply to TailChaser]

Thanks TC. Absolutely exhausted tonight. I think not just the run but stress I felt before.

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to Runningroni]

I can understand that. I always have a mixture of excitement, dread & apprehension before any run and it’s that x10 for parkrun and that x100 for a big run. Once I’m up and running, and realise I can actually run after all, it’s great! It must be great to have your first big one out the way though, onwards and...onwards 😁👍x

[Runningroni Graduate10 in reply to TailChaser]

I really enjoyed it and have realised I can do but do I want to. Which is very good thing as a world of choice is out there. I have had such a good day mostly because my husband came and shouted me on. When I run solo he cannot be involved.

[GoGo_JoJo Graduate10]

That's great! I'm really pleased you enjoyed the experience 👍🏻😁

[Runningroni Graduate10 in reply to GoGo_JoJo]

It was good. I did your use a knee massage on the calf. Was ok but I think I need an expert if I want to sort it in the long term.

[GoGo_JoJo Graduate10 in reply to Runningroni]

A sports massage is great, can be a bit uncomfortable but you get used to it and it's always worth it 👍🏻😉

[Runningroni Graduate10 in reply to GoGo_JoJo]

I need to look after this not so young body. It's like a vintage car, could let it go to rack and ruin or it could be classic. Will book it for a tune up soon.

[Deals1 Graduate10]

Well done!!

[Dexy5 Graduate10]

Congratulations on your first race runningroni. Glad you enjoyed it too. 🎖🏃‍♀️

[alisonx Graduate10]

[Runningroni Graduate10 in reply to alisonx]

Thank you.

[Run46 Graduate10]

Congrats RR, very well done 👍🎉

How lovely that your hubby came along to support you and then proudly let family know how well you'd done...enjoy a rest day or two to recoup now 😁

[Runningroni Graduate10 in reply to Run46]

He is a proper star.
