Hi Ed,
Raced 10k yesterday, 2 laps on a 5k route. 80% gravel, 20% asphalt.
Nice weather. Quite messy first k with 1000 runners.
New PR but not sub 40.. can you believe it, 40:17 :mad:
Lost the race at the 6th k (4:15) :confused:, don̫̉t know why that was so slow.
Was on target by the 7th k (28:00).. didn̫̉t manage to push last 3 k below 4 min/k.
Think I am to afraid of pushing me to the limits and also the watch may be a cause to set pace around 4k instead of listening to the body. Will run without instant pace feedback next time.
1. 3:51 (161)
2. 3:57 (168)
3. 3:58 (169)
4. 3:58 (170)
5. 3:58 (171)
6. 4:14 (172)
7. 4:01 (174)
8. 4:08 (175)
9. 4:04 (178)
10. 4:04 (178)
5k: 19:44
10k: 40:17
Over and out
