Run > Race

Ely New Year's Eve 10k Road Race. Was gonna be happy to run this as a plod right at the back until OM said 'just run it a bit faster than you have been running of late' Completely changed my mindset there and then 'run a bit faster, hmmmm, maybe I could manage that'. <br>

Was not tempted at all to speed along the first downhill bit and tried to keep everything a similar pace. Gradually slowed along the course but really pleased to have kept under 9m/m for the whole distance....I would have been happy with just the first two miles! Even more surprised to get 1st FV50 prize, guess the faster ones weren't there on the day - had to check when I got home that I was not the only FV50.....pleased to say, there were 21 of us.
