woohoo!

Not a very quick run, but not sure I’ve ever managed consistent neg splits before.

It’s always good to find something positive 😂😇

🍏👏🙌 Every run you do is a positive. However always positive to find a negative 🤣🤣

According to that blog, negative splitting is the best way to execute a race, but I am still executing a 'go, followed by stop 5 km later' beginners strategy. This has given me something to work on in the months ahead. Thanks!
