Two PB's!!!

Wasn't trying to go faster this morning. Had a nice straight bit after a yucky hill and thought I'd try the experiment again ( if you move your arms quicker your legs will follow) and lo and behold I ended up with 2 PB's again ( had two a couple of days ago!)

5.59 fastest K and 10.91 fastest mile!

Now if only I could sustain it for the whole run!

The arm thing is obviously working. The only other thing I'm doing differently is eating porridge for breakfast!

Have a great weekend everyone.

WOWZA! Nice one IP. There's nothing quite like a PB for that feeling of happy smugness is there! Well done.
