10k

Not doing this one. Focusing on getting super fit to do the Super Spartan & Para's 10 back to back in the same weekend. Mentally seem to be shifting to wanting to get another half marathon in & hopefully a full marathon in by years end. Have my eye on a super duper race for next year.

Re-branded race I did last year http://www.urban-run.co.uk/index.php

Might be worth doing to see how my speed is over 5k in preparation for my first 5K Spartan Sprint.

And its cheaper than last year
