First 10k run of 2020!

[skysue16]

Misty, muddy and a slight drizzle but we loved our first run of the new year! A land slip and very muddy lanes, due to heavy rain, meant a slight detour and rather slow going, but it was just so good to be out running and manage a 10k.

Goals for 2020 ...... enter a Canicross event, run 10 miles, run at least three events, get back to regular strength &flex work and go to PR once a month.

All the best to you all. Happy running 😀

Good run for you today, I will be running my first 10K tomorrow, I thought I would run a 10K on the 10th day of Christmas which is the 3rd January, the route I will be running on is not too muddy, mainly tarmacadam.

Enjoy your 10k on the 10th day!

Superb, well done and great goals too!

Thanks, it was fun and I managed not to slip over!

Yay for getting out there.

Definitely enter a Canicross event, it’s a really different experience to running at an event where dogs are allowed.

I really need to do some strength work.

[skysue16 Graduate10 in reply to Maddee_6333]

I find it really hard to get motivated to do strength work - not the same buzz as running (clearly not working hard enough!). Planning to book a place in a Doggie Dash today! A local one, just for fun, not a really serious Canicross event. Squiggy will get VERY excited!! 🐾🐶

[Maddee_6333 Graduate10 in reply to skysue16]

Oh me too!

Doggie Dash sounds fun 😍

[Grannyhugs Graduate10]

Those conditions look very hard work well done for reaching 10k in them. Grand plans for 2020, I wish you the best of luck. Happy running

Thank you 😊 Luckily most of the trail was ok, but this lane was thick with mud that had come off the fields with the recent heavy rain!

[Buddy34 Graduate10]

Great running skysue16. That mud really must have gave your legs a real workout. Have a great 2020 😊😊

[skysue16 Graduate10 in reply to Buddy34]

Uphill too!! Phew!

[skysue16 Graduate10 in reply to Buddy34]

Thank you 😊

Well done - sounds like a good start to 2020 to me!👍🙂
