For a few weeks now I have been building up my running times and thinking I am almost ready for a 10k. I have been chicken about applying. Then a facebook post offering a berth at the Fleet 10k due to illness and the knowledge that I would know someone else doing it was enough, and I jumped in, my first ever 10k and at barely 3 days notice.
Well, what can I say? It was a resounding success. Great weather - dry, warm but not hot. Great course, 2 loops with no hideous hills. Lots of on street support from the locals. And my time of 1:04.59 was very pleasing even if the timing people logged it under the 5k results instead of the 10k. Believe me, I did 10k.
Downloading my garmin trace afterwards, it was equalling pleasing to see how even my pace was throughout the whole race.
Roll on the next one!
Maura.
