50 minutes again

[Rennur]

5.77Km on my harder route, during which I did 5K in 43:35 (I entered 43:37 into (not)parkrun as I misread my phone!)

This is not my best time but knocked off 20 something seconds off my last run on this harder route.

Really pleased as it seemed a real Toxic 10 (plus 10) to start. Got a second wind later on.

This week I did 4K Monday (35 minutes and change), 3K with intervals and today.

Normally give myself two days before my longer run but I am giving blood tomorrow and want 2 days off before it all starts again on Monday.

Only annoyance was pins and needles in my right foot at 2.5/3K again - this keeps happening. I am tying my laces up looser, but I guess it is just because I am still a novice. Of course, it disappeared with 500m to go! Next Saturday is 55 minutes so maybe I will get over 1K at the end with no pins and needles...

oh what a lovely week of running it was for you Rennur loves how you're mixing it up that's pretty cool. Taking a leaf out of your book....slowly increase distance (which also correlates with time) . 🏃‍♂️🏃👍🏃‍♀️

Well done on your runs this week 👍

Have you looked at the different ways of lacing up your shoes? I’m sure it’s in one of the pinned posts somewhere. I’ve used different lacing on each foot 😊

I will experiment. I tried just not trying them too tightly. In fact I will re-lace tot this afternoon before I forget due to tboredom of Everton^s first half performance l. We'd better win now.
