First 5-6km went well, then started to get a stitch and energy levels slumped! Had to keep giving my self a good talking to to not stop and keep going. Reached 9km about 49.30 so knew once I got back on the track, if I kept a reasonable pace and then pushed the last bit at the right time so not too soon, that sub 55 was on the cards!!
Just seen my dashboard puts my pace at 5:28, I didn’t know this but managed 5:29 anyway 🤷♀️
Super pleased to get a PB and now feel my 10km pb is more aligned with my PBs for other distances, as this one did seem to stand out as being a bit slow compared to them before.
Thanks for your support as always 😘 not sure if I’ll be able to get many other pbs this year but I’m super pleased I have achieved this one as this one has been elusive for a while. I know I had a couple of 10kms pbs last year but they didn’t seem to be as good as what I should have been able to achieve but now it is 😊
