Well out I got this morning for a recovery 5K..

Thought it would just be a slow stretching run.. but as soon as I started my run I felt bouncy and fast..lol..

So I kept it up... and wow got myself a 5K PB be it only by 2seconds.., I'll take that πŸ˜‚

Finished at the top of the lake and sat looking over it admiring the view..with tunes still playing..felt like having a dance there and then.. but made do with a Bob of the head and tapping feet πŸ€£πŸ’ƒ

That is very good to know Caroline, by the way, yesterday I ran a PB 10K in a time of 1:08:44, that was my 20th 10K, I am quite pleased with that time.

I've noticed this too. After a really long run (eg. HM) and a bit of a rest, I'm often bouncier (and a little faster) than before.
