The oxymoron of slowly getting quicker.

Yesterday was the local half marathon and 10km fun run. I competed last year and ran the best 10km time I have run for more than 10 years.

Yesterday I ran just a little faster again.


I managed to hold 5min km pace for the entire 10km (splits were very even 4:58 to 5:01 average for each 2km segment)

My time was 49:54 a new PB for the course..... it's looking good although mu muscles were a little sore this morning

Here is the link to my run

Hence the oxymoron....... Slowly getting Faster....

I had fun going through some of my rules of running.....

1. Always walk at drink stations
2. You are still in a drink station if you are still holding a cup.
3. Anything that would be illegal as a race walk must be a run!
