A bit late posting but I did 10 miles!

Only just got around to posting, but I finally made it back up to 10 miles on Friday! Last week I postponed my long run from Weds due to the weather, and Friday turned out to be glorious ☀️. I did my usual route with some extra trail kms across the fields thrown in (with the odd tractor to distract me).

This is my longest run since I abandoned my HM training at the end of March, and I am pleased that it was my fastest 10 miles to date, a tad under 2 hours.

Best of all, I didn’t spend the rest of the day feeling wiped out, and I managed to do an 8 mile walk on Saturday with relative ease too.

Still no news on the Coventry HM, I am largely resigned to the fact that it will go virtual. In the meantime, another 11 miles planned for the sunny day tomorrow.

Brilliant! That must feel great. All new territory now - even better! Sounds like you're a good deal fitter than in March too, so you're clearly doing lots right 😊

Wonderful - from someone else who has recently got back to 10 mile runs - it feels great to have ticked that one off, doesn't it!

Good luck with your 11 mile run too.👍🙂

That's a lot of miles very close to each other if you do it tomorrow though - go steady!
