Fantastic runs all round ^^^
I did my first timed/chipped 10k last week in Stratford. In the back of my mind I was hoping to sneak under 38min. I managed a 37:10.
2nd V45 and 12th overall. Happy. Pretty even splits for first and second half. I'm doing another at the end of the month, so maybe I can get the negative split and go under 37. Dunno. I'm at week 5 of the 12 week Alfredson protocol for achilles tendinitis/osis/opathy. Pain still fluctuates from day to day, but if nothing else my calves are getting stronger.
Meanwhile my son edged closer to his goal of a sub 20min 5k before his 12th birtday. He's got 22 seconds and 1 month to go…
