Running race 51:15 [4]
shoes: Asics GT 2110
10k race. Was hoping to get 50min, although my training hasn't really been very good, and would have had to have a good day to hit that.
In my last 10k I went off too quickly, and struggled later on. Today I wanted to go slower at the start, so I didn't try and start near the front of the field, but ended up going too far back and having to run round people for the first couple of k's. Lost a lot of time doing that, and that's mostly what stopped me hitting my target.
6.00 (people)
5.31 (people)
4.59
5.14 (hill)
5.01
4.57 (water)
4.51
4.58 (hill)
4.49
4.54 (hill)
Was happy with the second half of the race (24.31). Didn't feel easy, but didn't feel completely exhusted either. I also enjoyed the challenge of picking people ahead to overtake and catching them up - the hills helped with that. I seem to like attacking hills.
Overall i've reduced by PB from 55.36 to 51.15.
