This was meant to be a slow 13K but given that I now have a HM booked in November๐ฑ and I felt (relatively good๐ฎ๐) at 12k, I decided to push on and run another 10 miles.๐ My legs felt better this time and 'the knee' kept quiet for most of the run, which was a bonus! I ran a mixture of road and trail and included a few hills to challenge me too๐ซ. I think I need to get a bit more adventurous with my running routes though, as I did a fair bit of 'looping' today to make up the miles....which was a bit boring!! ๐๐
Another 10 mile training run.๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ - Fun Beyond 10K & ...

Speedy, speedy! I had to start mixing up my routes as the runs got longer (same with rides); the sense of adventure and exploration made the runs more exciting and were a useful distraction too
Yep, have planned my next long run. It's an out and back but somewhere I've not been to before!๐
Enjoy ๐

Great running and great speed too.
I did 2 laps of a park in the middle of mine to add some distance.
I had a nice route worked out on onthegomap but when I got where I should have gone over a bridge I could see it but couldn't find how to get there from where I was...so park laps filled the gap : )

Wow, youโre not hanging about are you! My 10 mile last week was a disaaaster (cue Craig Revel Harwood ๐)......but I did get the distance.......
Youโll smash that HM, power to you Sandra, weโll done ๐ช๐๐

Very speedy! Well done! It really gets the confidence up when you can do it again and again! ๐๐ป๐

Super run Sandra.. and yes, those loops can be a tad boring... mine usually involve running around the station and the stream near my home... over and over again..
Well done you..lovely pace
Yes, I have to stop doing too many loops!! I have planned an out and back route for my next long run - but to somewhere I've not been before, so am quite looking forward to that. Need to plan a few more big circuits!๐

Brilliant pace Sandra. I need to expand my portfolio of runs too. I did work out an optional hilly front end to my normal run which adds 2k, or 4K if I add it on to the end too! Changing is tough though given my one non negotiable criterion... every run must end within cool down walk distance of a flat white and triple chocolate brownie! ๐

Thatโs really interesting about the looping as I always think where can I go thatโs further when actually when i start getting much further I could just go around twice ๐ Well done on your 10 miles ๐

Wow, fantastic pace Sandra! Well done. Yes, it is difficult to find longer routes . Sometimes I misjudge the distance and end up running round the houses - literally!
