53.02

to do 10k

I was going to justify this as I am in Aberystwyth and it is flat, but that said I don't get the benefit of the downs either.

I should have done better, but as ever set off to fast in mile 1 and had to slow up for a couple of miles. On the return I got it right and pushed myself to make up the time. The last mile was around 7.5 min/miles.

Rest day tomorrow as this is the 3rd 10k in 3 days. I feel like a different person from who I was at Easter.

My God. You are truly outstanding and an inspiration. I can't imagine I could have got any close to that time when I was 16 stone, let alone drop in a 7:30 in there. I reckon you will be running sub 40 10ks by this time next year.

That's fantastic! I can't imagine I'll get anywhere near that in September. Well done!

53.02 is great! I did a flat 10k in 59.05 this afternoon which is a personal best for me. My target is 55 (I don't like to have insurmountable aims!)!

I do it in 47.43 in trainers and shorts normally

I don't like insurmountable aims either Nat. That is why my goal is to run

My other aim is to overtake Chris Moyles as the fittest fat bloke you know

Time to start another obsession or addiction thread I think

How's the Ultra training going Trin?
