You are making swift improvement, Toks. Well done!
I was impressed with your sub 60, Nicholas; a 2 minute mile will be awesome when you up the distance ;)

I can bear witness to the fact that Nico can turn out a pretty nifty mile. Perhaps not quite *that* nifty though. ;)

Thanks Glenners :-)

Although my stats for shorter distances make me think the mile time should start with a 6 rather than a 7.

lol GM!

More progress Toks :)

I've managed 10 minutes at 9:45 pace in "training" so starting to get a little bit of pace back into the legs. First target sub 31 5k at the end of my 10wk Project Joker (think that's towards the end of June) and take it from there. Very much a long term goal for me!

Another race last night. 5 miles. Very flat. Finished in 54:16. My PB on this course is 43:00!!! On the plus side (which is what I am, and why I'm 11 minutes slower than 2014 :-) ) I ran a big negative split and felt strong at the end.
