Negativity, but in a good way...

Set out for a fairly leisurely 5k after work and somehow this happened. The intention had been to do it all at an easy pace of 7-7:30/km, but given the trend of the first 3k, I decided to throw caution to the wind and go for it. Not quite sure where that final kilometre came from, but it helped turn an otherwise fairly mundane lollop into something a bit more.

Negative splits. Very nice. That’s how you go after a parkrun PB. Very well done, nice running.

Nice progression. Really does look like it was planned. And thank you, I now know a new piece of jargon - "negative splits". 😁

Fantastic effort. Sometimes taking pressure off and just going for a run produces best results. Happy running
