Ninky Nonk Sep 2018 3:37pm, 3 Sep 2018 2,833 posts	0 Ninky Nonk Next 10k at back end of November. I'd like to drop 98secs off that time. Any suggestions apart from hacking off limbs.
SPR Sep 2018 3:58pm, 3 Sep 2018 26,988 posts	0 SPR No specific sessions advice from me, but what do you think your current weakness is? Speed? Specific speed endurance? Endurance? One or two of those, or all three?

rhb Sep 2018 9:07pm, 5 Sep 2018 1,060 posts	0 rhb I've now switched to Ultra Prep for 2 x 12hrish nights out to break running things up into Nov, then aim to focus on slow miles & xc Dec onwards. Aiming to enter Sizzlers 2019 and see if I can get lower in the 16's. Until then, good luck sub 18'ers!
