Planned an 11.4km run tonight, but felt good so extended it to 12, and then tried for 15k. Didn't manage that, but still - 14k is still pretty darn good Just gotta add another 6k and I'll be half-marathoning it...! If I stick to my *original* plan of adding 1k every week, i'll get there in 6 weeks!!!
funny how every long distance goal seems completely unachievable - until you're nearly there! I felt exactly the same about 5k and 10k...
