10Km Time Trial

It seems that every time I had to do a long run the weather is absolutely shit and today was no different.
Pissing rain. By the end of the run it felt like I was wearing a weighted suit.

warmup
usual mobility drills with running focus.

10km
I ended up running 10.11km as I mapped it out slightly wrong at the start but pretty accurate.

Time = 52:38

That works out to be 5:12 min kms or 8:22 min miles.

Thats pretty consistent with what I've been doing up until now so its ok I guess.
That was the longest run I've ever done in my life to date.
I feel pretty good after it but I def could have pushed it a little more. On the last km or so I started going a little faster and realized that I had a lot more left in the tank but you live n you learn.

  2. I wore normal sneakers. My calves wouldn't have been able to take that distance in the vibrams yet!
