10k Personal Best
Mind you, my PB at 10k is poor anyway, having only ever ran 2 (both at the Great Edinburgh Run). It was around 47ish minutes, it's now 43 mins (exactly, I think, though the results aren't confirmed yet). Not brilliant but getting a bit more respectable. I honestly believe that if I concentrated on it, I could go under 40 minutes but that's conjecture until I do it.
I did the Buchlyvie 10k, near Stirling, this afternoon. Out of 440 or so entrants (and who knows how many starters), I think I ended up about 58th or so. Again, that's unconfirmed.
I started much too fast and I wore too many clothes (too warm for a base layer and a hat) but I kept it going pretty well to the end, despite the last km being more or less uphill and the nasty little run round a muddy playing field to trash you just when you are done.
I've got another 10k in a couple of weeks (at Grangemouth). Hopefully, I'll be able to improve on that time a bit.
