Well today got out early wanted to beat the rain due for later. Had built back up to 7k last week and had not run at all this week I guess I feel a little superstitious regard injuries before a big run so basically don’t go until I need to. Well I had an aim to get it under an hour based on most of my 5Ks being under 30 mins so just treat as two 5Ks without a break in the middle. I couldn’t decide whether to run the streets or just 6 laps of the park. I did both in the end 5k on the streets and 5k in the park. Just have to submit and wait for my medal 🏅. Good luck to anyone else doing the Virtual Vitality London 10k. You can do this.

Great stuff, I love the way you joined the two halves together!
Thanks couldn’t decide was worried doing six laps of the park so with 5k out of the way I could just plod around the park like it was a normal 5k run that I do every week. It worked although I will admit I was knackered by the end having not really done any long runs since the London BigHalf in March 2020.
