GlennR May 2023 10:57pm, 6 May 2023 70,048 posts	0 GlennR Just checked my Garmin. It reckons I can do 10k in 59:14. Mm.
GimmeMedals May 2023 3:04am, 7 May 2023 25,122 posts	0 GimmeMedals That sounds like a good event to target, Dvorak. Good luck and let us know how you get on. If Garmin is predicting that, then you could be there sooner than you thought, Glenn. You are running better this year than you have for some time, NO 👍 Keep us updated with your progress Snail.

sparklecloud May 2023 6:42pm, 7 May 2023 581 posts	0 sparklecloud I feel like I could finally do it this year! My previous 10k PB was 1:04:41 but in the last couple of weeks I've beaten it twice - 1:02:57 last week and 1:02:41 today. Trying to sort out some semblance of a training plan for the next attempt in July! (I also went out far too fast today and somehow managed 29:26 for the first 5k - my first sub-30 for over two years. Hope I can replicate that at parkrun soon!)
