chunkywizard May 2017 8:34pm, 22 May 2017 4,371 posts	0 chunkywizard Did 18:59 at the track on Friday night, only the second time under 19. It's definitely easier on the track, although it didn't feel too easy at the time. Came down with a cold the day after so maybe there is more in the tank when I'm fully fit!
larkim Jun 2017 11:28am, 16 Jun 2017 2,230 posts	0 larkim Thought I'd only post in here the once, but seems I'm closer to feeling like a genuine sub 19er than I might have done previously. 19:11/12 (not had official time through yet) last night at a local race organised by the local authority to promote active workforces etc. Didn't give it full race day beans or prep and it was a touch breezy by the coast, but did try fairly hard so left reassured that I can go sub 19 again on a good course at some time in the future. I'm still surprised by this, mind you. Suppose I really should think about sub 40 for 10k now too...
Uyuni Jun 2017 12:32pm, 16 Jun 2017 1,071 posts	0 Uyuni You should indeed lark - your current 10k PB is very soft I'd recommend having a crack at a 5000 on the track if you can find one nearby
