Leamington Spa Regency 10k

[Windoze]

7am and my alarm starts telling me bed is not where I need to be....ok...so I'm grumpy but I'm up...what more does a man need than bloody porridge and a banana to cheer him up....hit the shower...and the best bit..

Running shorts on...my little Asics compression socks on next...wolfrun top on...now I'm feeling it...whoop race day 😎😎

Now for the twist...I've arranged to meet some c25k virtual running buddies before the race!! Omg...they might find out I'm actually a total fruitcake...

So I head up to the carpark and what can i say....I have today met some fantastic people. Thank you Tails and Katnap and your wonderful family. It made my day.

This was supposed to be a race report but sometimes there are better things than PBs and excuses for not hitting that PB.

Anyhow, I ran the 10k and loved every minute of it. I didn't break my 50mins but I'm not really that bothered. I can have a go at that one next time round 🥳

I learn lessons every race and and every run. The one I already knew but got reinforced today is running brings people together.

And I love that.

Sub 50 you can wait a little 🥳🥳🥳🥳

It was fab wasn’t it 🤗 You’ll get your sub 50 before too long I’m sure 😊

...and you’re no more fruitcake than the rest of us 🤓🤪X

Brilliant post! Yup porridge and a nana with a race to follow is enough fun for anyone 😁. Who knew though 🤷‍♀️ Certainly none of us when we took those first tentative steps of couch to 5k programme Here we are racing about the place 💪👍😃🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏅🧁

The icing on the fairy cake was meeting up with fellow HU runners 👌

Well done all round 👏👏👏👏👏
