Mr. Grumpy
I don’t know how the hell I did it but I just ran a 41:04 10k for a 73.78 WAVA.

Was ready for throwing the towel in at the 5k mark due to a bad headwind, but gritted my teeth and stuck with it. Considering that it’s my first proper go at a 10k in two years, it’s given me hope that I might be able to go sub 40 if I can find the right race within the next six months or so!

Well done Mr. Grumpy you're obviously fitter than you thought. Good luck finding the right race for the sub 40 attempt.

Just realised I got a 70 wava at parkrun today, even up to 71 depending on which figures you believe. So a 70 at 10k and 5k this year on the come back trail🙂
