YORK 10K all the way...

Months of running, wearing out trainers, pounding the road - not missed a 3 run week for over 20 months leading to a charity run for Macmillan. This was my Olympics! It was not a PB but Strava had me at 1hr 13mins 20secs so shaved off around 6mins since June 2020. Very happy to have raised over £220 for Macmillan Cancer Support. I want to keep going, in fact I must keep going. I did this race when I turned 50 and now approaching 55 I am 3 minutes faster...what is going on...?
