Forrest Gump

Well, not quite ;-) Got my longest run ever in last night, 7.5km. I wanted to see how ti felt and use it as an indicator as to whether I’d be able to finish the 10K next weekend. I decided to adopt the “run 6mins, walk 1min” approach popularised by Jeff Galloway since I never really got up to speed with a proper training plan. It worked pretty well last night as I managed to do the 7.5km in 47:40, which would predict a 10K time around 1:04:00. Jacqui is still keen to do the race, so I’ll just run with her if she does decide to enter.

My legs feel pretty good today, though my calves are a little sore.
