Virtual HU10k - done and dusted !

[Juliet202]

Did it !! First non-stop 10k since November - and possibly only my 3rd non stop 10k in total. Hurrah ! Thanks to the organisers for putting together the play list, setting up the virtual route - was very motivating and there was even one moment when our hill climbs were in sync !! ‘Footloose’ came on as I was seriously flagging around 7.5 km on another uphill bit, so that upbeat tempo really helped !! Groaned when ‘riding on donkey’ came on (wishing I really had one!) then realised it’s Palm Sunday so that was very appropriate. 😜 Thank you to whoever put Bruce Springsteen ‘born to run’ on the playlist - this kept me going too - and all the motivational messages were great - was great to be running with you all!! Hurrah ! Maybe I’ll restart my HM training plan now and see where I get to. Got to 10miles before injury (jeffing! ) so will have a think about what’s realistic. Happy Sunday !! 🥳

Very well done, Juliet. A huge achievement. That was me that suggested Bruce. Glad he helped!

Thanks ! Think I might have to catch up with some more Brucie on my next run !

You should. Thunder Road is another great one to run to.

Feeling a little sleepy but considering you just ran more than double what I did I’m going to try and stay awake !!

Congratulations 🎊It sounds like you had a great run, the commentary gave me a few giggles

Fabulous!!! Riding on a donkey made me laugh out loud and temporarily put a spring in my step 😅. Getting injured once doesn't mean it will happen again. Maybe make sure you insert some extra recovery weeks into your HM training and take it easy, no pressure. Getting back to 10 miles would be a great achievement in itself. Good luck whatever you decide 😊
