That's bloody good advice that is!
Family, friends, running, work. Pretty much have it all don't I. Yeah yeah I'm a lucky girl :)
Bells and Whistles 10k. The lovely Debbie Vincent drove me down to Dover ( she is an awesome lady) and we helped set up the water station for the marathon. Loads of time for me to get ready for the 10k. The course was four laps of 2.5k, and I knew what they were. Couple of hairpins that slow you but otherwise great running.
Started at 11am and straight onto the course with the marathoners. After about 500m I took the lead. Oh ok. After a k we turn at a hairpin. No ladies near, 2 blokes not far behind. Keep running!
I do, pass finish at 2.5k. Then water at 3k. I don't drink it I pour it on my head. First hot run this year.
5k still leading. Blimey! More water on head. Working hard now but still leading. Loving this!
Get to 7k, 1st man right behind me. Ok, can I get to lap? No, he took me just before but I'm still trying.
Last lap, I can do this. Of course. Get to 10k far before the end. Race is 10.5k but I'm First Lady second overall. Get in!
I think that was my last race really. Got plans yeah but just had a week completely floored with a cold. Tail ran VP last week, don't know why because it is just a walk.
Waited 3 weeks to do a decent interval session. I can do 3k with breaks at sub 20 pace.
Need to put that together.
Need to hurt myself in the race.
Question is. Can I?
You will hear the answer.
Meanwhile. If you think you can, you can. You know the rest.
