I feel as though I've made a little bit of progress today. 4.15 miles at fastest pace this year (not that I'm too bothered by pace but it's nice to see some improvement when I'm not trying to run faster) It's a long way off 10, I know, it's given me some confidence that I can run further than 5K. Looking forward to a run by the sea on Sunday

Ness Feb 2017 5:06pm, 4 Feb 2017 7,943 posts	0 Ness The speedwork I've been doing in the week has started to have an impact. I managed 10 miles this afternoon in 1:39:05. Will be happy if I can repeat that at Draycote but not sure if it'll be possible. It's usually quite breezy from what I remember.
GimmeMedals Feb 2017 5:32pm, 4 Feb 2017 15,128 posts	0 GimmeMedals Well done Ness. I'm doing cycling in preference to running this weekend, partly because I have a large blood blister on my foot after Tuesday's run.
