Went for an easy (for me) 11k today to round up 53k for the week - easily my record over 7 days.

Crystal Palace 10k

2 loops of the park there - tough course. Very hilly with inclines everywhere, especially the last mile which I had to jog/walk at times

55:31

To be honest, I've never used one so I was just going off what I've read! My old Garmin was always way off - seemed to be the same HR whether I was running a 5km PB or a slow trot - but I'm seeing more varied readings with my new Coros.

Haha i pretty much did the same until I tried it out.

Did the Daffodil 10k in Stockport today.

Managed to just sneak under 48 minutes. Preparation wasn’t helped by a 14 month old baby bringing germs and bugs back from nursery and passing them on.

It’s a good little race though that I’d not done before but will hopefully do again.

Thinking of doing Wilmslow next in late March.

I’m doing the Wilmslow half in March. Should be a nice race!

They had an issue with the timings, you might want to check your official time again, the official times added 30 seconds on for some reason, but they fixed it later

4 miles at lunchtime today. Meant to do it yesterday but couldn't get motivated and not in very good place mentally. Usually when the latter the first thing I look to do is get out for couple miles. All good today and usually only do 2-3 miles at lunchtime but went the little extra today

Good time that!

Despite running for years, that was my first ever organised event and I get the buzz around them now.
Definitely planning more.

There's a few Wilmslow events in March.
Up for a half marathon at some stage and was looking at May - but there's a good chance it will be v warm then and I'm not a huge fan of running in heat.

As an aside, my legs are a little sore this morning but I did do Park Run, few walks, the 10k Daff and then a heavy Pilates (legs session) yesterday.

General advice good to run later? Nothing hurts and I definitely want to stat stepping up running now.

Run as slow as you can later, will work wonders
