yes i think i set off thinking i can break world records and then 2ks in my body gives me a reality check....I would be happy with 25 mins! But yes, I can see that you slowed down quite a lot - I find it really difficult to slow down over those first couple of miles, so I know where you are coming from.Sealed Pot Challenge 2013: No 1898

Mascot,
Just reading those splits I am feeling your pain as the lactic acid must have been screaming out of your legs!
All distances of 5K and above are about who slows down the least, negative splits are rare, but the best times are always run off steady starts.
Which is good news, of course, because you can clearly go significantly quicker!:DGt NW 1/2 Marathon 21/2/2010 (Target=1:22:59) (6:20/mile) 1:22:47 (6:19):j:j

KYCI - what is it that you are aiming for in your race? Your sig shows that you are already used to running the distance, so is it a particular time you are wanting?Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes.

yeah....i was hurting at the end but thats not bad for me to stay focussed,
i might look to go to the park run at richmond soon and see if running with others helps... (im sire it will)
i am getting a bit addicted to this running lark.
i will be moving soon and i am already planning to run from a station into work (was planning to drive and cycle)....
new trainers are feeling great too.
i am also getting slightly addicted to reading this thread but it is my wifes birthday and i better go (i think she just called me a geek!!):oSealed Pot Challenge 2013: No 1898

Hypno great running today!
Am waiting for my AA club number from Women running network so that I can finally enter some races...every penny counts and £2 off Bristol will pay for the park and ride
Rich fab running again...you are a machine!
Sammy good luck with that half!!
Have to say I didn't notice any inclines at London
maybe Im used to running undulating all the time I don't notice them..either that or I was comatosed (more likely to be honest!) I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....

Thanks sally! I would have preferred a few more days between the two races, but it wasn't to be! So I am pretty pleased with the time. did you manage to find any summer races?Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes.

I know what you mean - it is a shame we don't have the parkrun things near to us....I would def be taking part in those if they were available!Successful women can still have their feet on the ground.
