Quite pleased with this parkrun today, course measured long as they use this park for a Christmas Lights show in December so the route was altered slightly. Strava puts me at under 34 mins passing the 5k mark. Was running with a friend so the first 2 laps didn’t actually feel like too much of an effort, the 3rd one did though going up the hill for the 3rd time in particular.
Just thinking ahead to next weeks schedule – I have entered a Xmas 10k for next Sunday the 21st December, it’s nice and flat so should be a good one for an effort if the weather is kind. It’s on the town moor which is very open so the main problem with it can be if you get any wind there’s no shelter from it.
Great work Sarah. Most well run 5ks we should feel an element of comfort in those first few kms and then the RPE will ramp up and we will need to dig deep, sounds like that was the case today, so a really good run from a training perspective. I’ve added the Xmas 10k to next weeks plan so thank you for letting me know about that.
