RunWisborough 10k ✔️🙂

This is the second time I have done this local event....funny that I had forgotten how undulating it is...all the way round! That aside, this is actually a lovely run, well organised and starting and finishing on the beautiful village green. The 10k and 5k runners both set off together and later after race prizegiving there was a children's colour run!🙂

I was a couple of minutes slower than last year - not a surprise considering I have had a few niggles lately and am just back to running my 10ks. Overall very pleased with myself 👍🙂and a nice shiny piece of bling to celebrate!

[Decker Ultramarathon]

Congratulations Sandra! Sounds like you really enjoyed this one. Great new bling too!

[Sandraj39 Half Marathon in reply to Decker]

I did Decker, although a nice, decent flat bit would have been nice rather than endless undulations!!

[linda9389 Administrator Marathon]

Excellent. Very well done 😍 Sounds like a lovely run - undulation aside. What a lovely way to make your mark again after so many unfortunate interruptions to your running this year. What next? 😀

[Sandraj39 Half Marathon in reply to linda9389]

Thanks Linda. I do have a few plans....the London Vitality 10k next Monday , a local 10k in September and the Great South Run (of course!) in October. It is almost inevitable that I will try for a second HM in the autumn too, I just have to decide which one!

[linda9389 Administrator Marathon in reply to Sandraj39]

That all sounds great - lots to look forward to. I beat my GSR time by 6 minutes yesterday so would definitely like to give it another shot. There are just soooo many race options in October though aren't there. I'd like to try the Chester metric marathon next year - 2020 - but it's about two weeks before GSR so I might have to wait til 2021 for GSR

[Sandraj39 Half Marathon in reply to linda9389]

Your star has definately been in the ascendant since the GSR, so I am not surprised at all! I am hoping I am on an upwards trajectory now myself🤞although I don't look forward to the heat of the summer (much prefer autumn and winter running!)🙂

[linda9389 Administrator Marathon in reply to Sandraj39]

That's exactly why I don't have anything else booked in. I have a 10k at the beginning of Sept - although even that might be too hot! hey ho.

[SaskAlliecat Half Marathon]

A great way to return back to 10k with a lovely bit of bling..... and some undulating hills 😍

[Sandraj39 Half Marathon in reply to SaskAlliecat]

Thank you - love a bit of bling!😀🏅

[GoGo_JoJo Ultramarathon]

Well done! The weather held too, in spite of a few dark clouds it's been lovely 👍🏅😁

[Sandraj39 Half Marathon in reply to GoGo_JoJo]

Yep, the weather was just great for running.

[Madge50 Marathon]

Whoop whoop! Well done! Nice bling too 😍........ooh I’ve always fancied a colour run....although OH says he wouldn’t let me in the car afterwards....worried about the mess.......not that he cleans the inside that often anyway.......😂...

[Oldfloss Administrator]

Absolutely smashing.. a lovely sounding run and really well done you ! xxx

You had a great time too.. I snuck a peek Speedy girl xxx

Sassy Bling too! x

[Sandraj39 Half Marathon in reply to Oldfloss]

The bling is fab...the time was ok - especially given my recent niggles and the fact that my Garmin told me it was 10.37k (as did my husband's too)!

[Oldfloss Administrator in reply to Sandraj39]

It was great run..:)x

[UnfitNoMore Metric Marathon]

Congratulations. Great job there a couple of minutes slower but having just got back to 10k is amazing.

[Sandraj39 Half Marathon in reply to UnfitNoMore]

Thank you. Such a lovely atmosphere and a real cross-section of runners from super speedy to steady snails!🙂

[Bluebirdrunner]

Really well done on your 10k event today Sandra😊...I saw on Strava that Liz ( Nanny pony) dId the 5k, she mentioned the undulations too!

Glad you enjoyed yourself,and you worked hard for that bling! 😊xxx

[Sandraj39 Half Marathon in reply to Bluebirdrunner]

Thanks Bluebirdrunner🙂

[Dexy5 10 Miles]

Well done Sandra, nothing like a bit of bling to get you past those undulatuons. 🏃‍♀️👏👏🏅

[Sandraj39 Half Marathon in reply to Dexy5]

..the second lap felt easier (apart from one hill, which felt just as bad!) I think it's the mental battle of knowing you are 'on the home straight'!

[Whatsapp Half Marathon]

Nice one Sandra. Always interesting how runs can feel different each time around.

[aliboo70 Half Marathon]

Great running Sandra!😊xxx
