Ooh I'm so pleased to have managed my 10K run this morning, skipping injury hopefully behind me now 🀞

Set out slow and the first 5K was tough, I think I was overthinking..will the ache come back.. felt I was running a bit tenderly.. but once I got into the second 5K things got back to my normal and I managed to pickup pace a little on the last few K's πŸ™

Can't tell you how happy I am to have got a longer run in, and back on track with the HM training plan πŸ’ͺ

Feeling good after my shower, no aches.. and my new trainers are feeling great πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ‘

Happy Running all πŸ™ŒπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

That’s great. No aches . You do tend to go careful at first just to make sure you feel ok, and you obviously did and had a great runπŸ‘I bet it felt good in your new shoes. What is your training plan for the HM?

Thanks Dups πŸ‘I had got up to 10Miles the week before my injury,

wasn't really following a plan as such , I had just been increasing my distance by a K or two every week,and a less mileage week once a month..

I'm going to try 12-14K at the weekend if my midweek 5K goes ok and I'm sure I've no effects of the injury..

So dropped back a couple of weeks, just to build up again πŸ’ͺπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ™

How's your running been since your 10 Miles ? πŸ’₯

So just increasing slowly. I sure you will build back up quickly πŸ‘My running has been great. A PB 5k and a PB 10k yesterday. Didn’t enjoy the 10k, I had my new shoes on for time and went off way too quickly and at was really warm. So even though it was a PB it was awful. I’m used to running really early in the mornings but I was too eager to try the shoes. Lessons learnt πŸ₯΅

5k early in the morning hopefully. Does everyone do a HM non stop? I did for the 10 miles but I don’t know if I can for a HMπŸ₯΅

I know you've been doing brilliantly!!! Enjoy your 5K in the morning, mad how we call it a short run now πŸ˜‚

When I run a longer run the only time I stop is for a quick drink..

I'm sure as we progress further, maybe a few more drink stops.. especially on the warmer days.. 🚰
