Take That Ciara!

At least 7 of these miles were directly head to wind or being blown sideways so having had my target of a steady 9.30min/mile for the 10 miles, I was pretty pleased to come home in 9.35min/mile!! There's a bit of shocking mile or so at around 7/8 miles on this loop that gets me every time. Up hill and into the wind (today). But I didn't actually stop, I just about got one foot in front of the other to get over that "hump"

Desperately needed this 10+ mile run under my belt as my training had gone slightly off the rails with tapering down last wee for the non-existent Winter Run (and also missing parkrun)... Anyway, it's done now. My longest time and my furthest distance. Only 2.5 more needed to cover the HM. STILL COMING FOR YOU CAMBRIDGE!!!! 26 days to go....

This wind adds a certain recklessness to a run doesn't it, all feels wild and unpredictable. But clearly none of that phased you! You're in a great position for Cambridge 💪💪💪👏👏👏
