Furthest I’ve run in my life today. Just over a quarter marathon! Got the shock of my life at end of 1k that I was only just over 5min/km pace as I usually start slow. Wasn’t pushing it, and was worried I had gone out too quick without realising it. Slowed it off a touch for middle of the run and glad I did as legs tired a bit around 7/8 km in. But had enough in the tank to push on last 2k and get sub 5:10/km overall. To be fair the track is flat and generally my fastest pacing but I’m delighted that, finally, I’ve pushed on past 10k! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Well done. It’s not all about pace though bear in mind. Go carefully now.

I totally agree. I did surprise myself, hence slowing, and for me the distance is paramount. Legs good today!
