23:40 on my leg of the local Ekiden, might get a few extra seconds back on the chip time. Can't do parkrun again until Sept so will be a while before i try again. |

Just dipped back into this territory with a 24:14 last weekend. Will hopefully be able to lower it again soon.

Shows how good my memory is. Went from 25:14 the week before to 24:12, rather than 24:14 that I posted above. 😃

Just as a point of information, this isn't a no-man's land. According to Fetch's table of all the data for 5 kms, fetcheveryone.com/league-percentages.php people in this range span from 17% to 58% (presumably for races only) which is 32%of race times. In other words, only 16% run quicker, and only 100-58=32 % run slower

Just feels like we're stuck here, or I will be in a month as I'm over 25 again.
