Excellent run for you BaddieThePirate with those negative splits, you should be very pleased with yourself, well done, I almost got negative splits on my 5K run on Wednesday -7:37--7:15--7:23-7:15-6:48 which I was very happy about, as the late great Tim said "keep running, keep smiling" 👍🏃‍♂️

You ran the second half of the race faster than the first (I’m assuming you ran a roughly constant pace for the third km). That means you achieved a negative split! Maybe that’s worth an extra big smile?

Another great run for you! What was it like? Are you on road or trail?

Trail. It was very warm. A bit muddy but drier than last week.

That sounds like my favourite sort of run!
