Blow me !!

Hi guys !! Well , I smashed my 10K PB today, by 3min:52 secs. The last time I ran a 10K was in October last year and the furthest I've run since then is 6K ,so I'm buzzing about my latest run , which for 5K was run in to a nice head wind.Totally unexpected ,as at present I don,t feel I'm anywhere near taking any more time off my 5K pb !! My 10K time today was 1:4:20 . Average time per K was 6:25 ,no great shakes there ,but my final K was run in 5:32 which astounded me as I haven,t been running that sort of time for a good while !! Oh well , having felt rather tired during run sessions recently who knew a PB was in the offing ?!?!

Blow you indeed! Fantastic! What a happy surprise! One of those turbo charged runs! Presumably you knew something special was in the offing during the run?

Brilliant run, especially into that headwind. Great Pb, fantastic times with a sprint at the end, I hope you are feeling on top of the world. There’s something special about being able to run through winter storms while others are no doubt stuck indoors complaining about the weather. Happy running

Thank you guys !! So encouraging, really . Yes, I thought a Pb was on at the 7K Mark as I had aprox. 22 minutes to run the final 3K and I knew my current times reflected that I was good for it. The final K was a celebration I think as I knew this was in the bag, but it wasn,t until 'stopping the clock' that I realized I'd had a real good 'un !! Coming on the forum yesterday moved me to up the anti today as you guys are doing so many fantastic runs over a variety of distances !! I'd become complacent really . Now .... 15 miles I read somewhere on here ,what's that all about ? Lol

Congratulations on your 10K PB of just over a hour, not long now until you will be able to run a sub 60 minutes 10K, you did run like the wind, especially that final 5.32k which astonished you. 😊 🏃🏾
