Training is going well and I have already managed to bring down my 10k time to sub-45mins, which I am very happy about. My aim is to get to 40mins for 10k by the end of the year. The route that I am running around Rochester is about 11.5k (if you have seen it via the Nike shares on Facebook or Twitter) which includes running over the Medway twice. It is a pretty scenic route in parts, running alongside the M2. Next step is doing a couple of laps to get me up to 20k runs, but that can wait until after the first event, which is in a couple of weeks. Speaking of which, here they are;

My one month where I am torn is October. The Tough Mudder would be fun but I feel that the Great South Run is more in keeping with the spirit of what I am doing. I'll wait until Feb to decide, I think.
If anyone is interested in joining me in any of these, the please give me a shout!
Tough Mudder in October!
ReplyDeleteGreat South Run! Brave choice for a first marathon, nice and flat but so many laps. I *hate* laps. That said, I might join you anyway.
