That would be 44:21 for 10K. Reckon that’s achievable after last night.

Congrats everyone, some great results especially as the weather has warmed up too.
Gymfreak - you're knocking minutes off every race!

We had perfect conditions last night and the undulating course really suits me. I was hoping for a low 51!
My next try will be next week I think but it’s an off road one (nearly flat though) and I never run well there, I need tarmac so that will just be for practice. Then I think I have another one end June then nothing planned for a bit. Might do burnham beeches 10k in August (the half would be silly talk I think)
We do have a club 5k series I am continuing with but these are also mainly off road and I really am so much slower on grass/trail than other people 🤷♀️
Really really loving being back running, and I genuinely think it makes me a better mummy when I go back home

WW, yes it is the crowding at parkrun, and my regular (Witney) is not a fast course because of the terrain. There’s been a max of about 80 participants in this evening series so there is very little congestion at the start.

Gymfreak - I can tell you're really loving your running at the moment.
Always tricky with an off road race to try and set a target.
I've got Yeovil marathon on Sunday, flat course, can sometimes be a little warm. But I've always run badly at this race and blamed it on being a week after DD, so hoping that as I only did 20 of DD I might do slightly better, we'll see. DD is the only race I don't recover quickly from.

Great running Columba. Which parkrun and did the result come as a surprise?
Anyone else got aspirations next week?

Well done Columba.👏👏👏👏
Aspirations for today are to just to complete a very hilly, off road 10k. If I get anywhere near 60% I’ll be extremely surprised! My aim is to treat it not so much as a race but more like a long slow run with added hills for spice!

Yayyyyy well done Columba!!
I might give the off road 10k a miss this week and try one the next week. My insides are a bit sore 😕 I think it’s the impact of faster running on tarmac. Hamstrings not too good either!
