Next years main challenge

Boots have arrived for Para's 10.

Ordered my normal size but they look bloody huge

Going to take a bit of breaking in over the next couple of weeks before I start any running with the Bergen in them.

Also ordered some insoles to help with supporting the foot & take some of the shock out of pounding the streets whilst training.

Saw the finishers medals on FB & they're awesome.

Busy three or so months coming up.

Elites at 10am

Same race distance wise but expecting some different obstacles. Last year we did the one in the Midlands which we will be doing this year but at a greater distance & moving up to the Super Spartan. We're after doing the races at all three distances to qualify for our Trifecta medal.

Found out this week that the Spen 10k is back on & running at the end of this month.

Last years time: 42.16

Goal is to beat that & get sub 40.

Will be first road 10k of the year.

Not long now till the Paras' 10 P Coy challenge. As usual have the pre race nerves of lethargy, dehydration & general grogginess.

Ah well just have to embrace it seeing as its every time now

Goal is sub 1 hour 50 minutes with an ultimate goal of sub 1 hour 30 minutes.
