10k run??

[Kat332zz]

Did my long run of the week yesterday, sort of. Couldn’t work up the enthusiasm for a straight 10k, so tried a walk/run for a change. So I did run 11k and I walked the rest. Can’t decide which is harder, all in one go run or this interspersed. Kept my brain active though trying to make sure I was at a walking stage when getting to any steep hills, steep in my book anyway. Enjoyed the change, but it was hard work towards the end. Oh and it was raining a bit and I didn’t dissolve 😀

I’ve tried this... and found 1km run 1km walk was really quite hard... I found it easier to just run 🤣. I’ve done it since with the walk halved and found it easier... and also done run by distance and walk by time, which was easier still.

Hell of a workout there... great job... and you’ve set 10k AND HM PBs to beat!!

Great effort, not sure I'd be happy with mixing walks and runs, especially over that length of time. What a great achievement. Happy running 🤗

It was certainly novel for a change. I work with Strava off a phone so the easiest way for me to do this is 1km intervals. The best thing is I can blow my nose and have a sip of water on my walk bits.
