I shattered my 10k PB this evening, going from 39:08 to 38:38. Running lots of easy miles without any workout and running a race every 2-3 weeks apparently works very well for me. |

That’s an impressive improvement. Lots of steady miles really is the key. |

Another 10k race today. The heat didn't bother me very much (I'm getting used to it) but I felt like I had some residual fatigue from last week's race. 38:26 for 9.83k (short course) which equates to around 39:10 for 10k. Happy with another sub 40 10k. It was a small race (120 people) but some decent runners showed up. I thought sub 40 would be good enough to make the podium in my age group but even my 38:26 was more half a minute off the M50 podium. |
