First 10k in a few years today.
Very slow and very steady but wanted to try to get to 10k again after shin splints flare ups over the last few years
Absolutely delighted to have finished it pain/niggle free
Just wanted to tell someone... :)))

Nice one!

I set that little Strava target of doing a 10k in January... Currently I'm hovering at a steady )slow) 6.5k and am very nervous about putting more distance in lest my hip / knee injuries flare. I think it's a massive achievement to have had injury but to be patient enough to get back to 10k like that. Well played.

Thanks so much for the kind words.
I signed up to the Jan 10k too, which spurred me on.
I took it really, really slow to make sure I could get all the way through (57mins!) and it was all good.
I think the best advice I’ve read/heard is to listen to your body. No rush :)
