NOOOOOOOO!! I'm so dumb!

[Lizcanrun]

So I just got back from my longest run yet and I am feeling VERY pleased with myself, EXCEPT I stopped at 15.5K, not realising that another 0.5 would have taken me to ten miles. For some reason I thought it was 17K...still, not too shabby and I saw some lovely crocuses (croci?) coming up, which was a lovely contrast to the cloud/rain/drizzle I was running in!

Wow Lizcanrun 10miles or not, damn fine running Brilliant 👍

[Lizcanrun Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

Thank you 😁

Oh dear its easily done. I stopped at 59 minutes not realising one more minute would have got me a virtual badge.But you did it and that's brilliant congratulations 🎊 You'll do it again and that extra K and then feel the pleasure in achieving such a milestone

[Sandraj39 Graduate10]

Fantastic run! Not too shabby at all ...in fact you should be massively proud of yourself!💪👏👏🙂 10 miles (16.1k) will wait for another day and will be cause for another celebration but in the meantime celebrate 15.5k!!👏🙂

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10]

Good run for Lizcanrun, 0.5 short of ten miles, the next time you run you will have completed a full 10 miles run.

[Lizcanrun Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

Not sure about the next time, that could well be a 3K!!!

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to Lizcanrun]

Give any run longer than 5K a 2 weeks break, then try and run that 16.1K/10 miles run

[HeavyFoot Graduate10]

Fantastic run whatever the distance!!

For future reference, when you get to it, a half marathon is 21•2 km, not 21. I so nearly made that mistake and would have been really disappointed to find out afterwards.

Keep us posted Lcr 😀

[Lizcanrun Graduate10 in reply to HeavyFoot]

Thanks for the heads up. Can't believe I'm even at the point where I'm considering it!

[HeavyFoot Graduate10 in reply to Lizcanrun]

It’ll nag at you till you give in!!

[roseabi in reply to HeavyFoot]

And in fact 10 miles is 16.09 km!

[Lizcanrun Graduate10 in reply to roseabi]

Arrrrrgh! Thank you 🤣🤣🤣

[roseabi in reply to Lizcanrun]

😊😊😊

[Birdlady64 Graduate10]

Brilliant run! 👏👏👏That 10 miler is ready and waiting for you!

And the crocuses (or croci - I think you can use either) are a sure sign that Spring is on it's way - Yay! 😁

[Hidden]

Fabulous run Liz! That 10 miles is well withing your grasp. You can run the next one with confidence now. Well done 👍🏼😊👏🏼

[roseabi]

Good stuff!! Next time 😊😊😊

[Grannyhugs Graduate10]

What a fantastic run, over 2 hrs running is a massive achievement to celebrate on it's own leaving a 2and celebration for your 10 mile 16.1k. Run when it comes. Happy running 🤗

[Lizcanrun Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

Thank you. When I do a long run, I invariably think back to W5R3 of C25K and remember how scary that 20min run was. Times have certainly changed!

[Grannyhugs Graduate10 in reply to Lizcanrun]

I was just remembering my 1st 5k, I was shattered at the end but like you can now run 2hrs and 10 miles. Improvement indeed. 🤗

[Lizcanrun Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

Amazing 👍😁

[Fionamags Graduate10]

That is both fantastic and tragic at the same time Never mind - we are all just waiting for that 10 mile victory post - won't be long now. But as Roseabi says - watch out for that additional .09K!!

[Lizcanrun Graduate10 in reply to Fionamags]

😂

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate]

Wow so close to 10 miles, and that promise of spring too
