Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

How was your run today?

Running along a country lane (closed to traffic) at 6:30 this morning, I met up with a pair of deer, ambling along the road. They soon scarpered when they saw the fetch shirt, but it made my morning :-)

My first ever, ever 10K race today! OK, so I finished 173 out of 176, but I did finish! Top moment, so I even bought an official race photo!

Well done Jules :-)

6 km recover run along the canal, then went for some exploring and ended up running up a steep hill off road and having to scramble :-) did d some easy jogging too though, and felt sort of recovered after :-)

Lovely weather!

what's the best race to aim for now then - would you recommend another 10k, or is the next thing a Half-Marathon?

I'd stick with improving 10k times first, but slowly make your weekly long runs longer, until you can comfortable run 12 miles, then try a 10 miler, follow the same recipe, making your long runs slightly longer, until you can comfortably run 15 miles, then attempt a half.

Painful :-(

Had problems with pain in my left hip from around 6K and had to stop for a couple of walk breaks...still managed a PB :-) and achieved my goal of running a 10K in under 50 minutes so it's not all bad :-)
