i just ran my first 10k. it was easy really, my top tips for those of you looking to make the the jump from 5 to 10k:
go in the rain (cooling innit?)
have no set agenda or target
comedy in yr headphones (no pesky rhythm to lose and giggling is a great distraction)
but most importantly, lose track of time and get lost. then after 5k or so stop to figure out where you are and head in the general direction of home.
job done!
i'm well chuffed!
