Looks a well paced run Charles, shame the course wasn't an official 10k but can't really complain for £5

My third lap was a little slower, that's why I didn't break 39 minutes. I was leapfrogging with 2 younger runners during the third lap. In retrospect I should have left them sooner. But a 10k is such a hard distance to run all by yourself. When we passed the finish line for the third time the announcer said "these 3 gentlemen are going to battle it out in the last lap" and that's when I dug deep and and started to gradually drop them. |

31:5x for measured 5 mile race today, so just about on par to think about sub 40 for a 10k being back on the table. Went out a bit quick but hung on with the lure of a couple of local rivals just ahead. Consistency rather than any magic formula of intervals or tempos is paying off.

That’s promising @larkim just shows consistency is the real magic to this game. There is a fast 10k for those close to Sheffield/Rotherham (or willing to travel) at Rother Valley on 12th October this year. There is a caravan/camping motorhome site less than 10 minutes walk from the race. It’s on the fetch race calendar fetcheveryone.com/races/sheffield-city-10k-10524398 |
