Four PBs in a month
I've been delighted to get four PBs in a month at the back end of this year. 30th October - 17:40 parkun 31st October - 36:26 10k 14th November - 35:44 10k 21st November - 59:33 10mile I've kept my training reasonably steady now for 18 months. Two hard workouts, two easy sessions, ideally a race and a long run each week. I think that two things have contributed to hitting what is the best form I've ever reached: Return of parkrun Running parkruns regularly every Saturday morning at race pace is a great way of keeping sharp and having something to target every weekend. Since the COVID restrictions were lifted at the end of July I've gone from around 18:25 pace to 17:45 pace on a flat course. Around the 18 min mark is also a time that will result in a few wins at parkruns with less than 200 runners - this buzz is always a nice incentive to give it that extra bit of effort.
