????PB Alert???? ° So my 2nd Half Marathon is in the books and happily I finished and managed to complete the distance in a quicker time than my previous outing. But OMG it was struggle at times. ° 6.5 times around Victoria Park was the task at hand and it was a cold one. ° The first 15km went well but the final 6km were a struggle with some moments of walking due to some foot issues. Despite all that I managed a to get round in less than 2hrs15. ° I made the decision to enter the event a couple of weeks back, as I wanted to see early in the new year where my fitness was at before commencing marathon training in February. Knowing I am a little out of shape and having done no specific training, it was always going to be tough. ° Hopefully this is just the start of my half marathon journey in 2019, and its so far so good. ° Shoutout to the people @runthroughuk who were brilliant and as always organised a great event. ° #run #runchat #runhappy #running #runninglife #runningman #runningmotivation #runningCommunity #runningdad #runner #runners #runnersofinstagram #runnerslife #runnershigh #runnersworld #igrunner #igrunners #instarun #instarunner #instarunners #happyrunner #thisdadcanrun #redjanuary #runeverydayjanuary #garmin #strava #personalbest #runthroughuk #halfmarathon

So, with the sore hip/thigh a little less sore this morning I made my way to the #runthroughuk Victoria Park Half marathon. A little nervous because of the niggles and also because my training since Chicago has been exclusively around recovery and base building. Fast forward to the end of today’s race… a Half Marathon PB!! Officially by over 3 minutes, unofficially by over 6 minutes (I over ran the distance by 0.4 mile zig zagging the course! ????????). Absolutely delighted!!! ???? I started slowly looking to just “manage” my way to the finish line, but after the first mile I just wanted to go quicker and felt the legs had it in them. They didn’t let me down. Thank you legs! ???? Oh and the shoes! First outing for the #vaporfly . Oh boy they are a total beast, they felt alive!! They just kept propelling me forward. The hype about those is real, they’re insane!! It was also great catching up with some regular RunThrough runners today after a long while! A Happy runner! ???? #personalbest #run #pb #getitdone #marathontraining #keepshowingup #yesyoucan #runner #hansonsmarathonmethod #runlondon #believe #tracksmithrunning #marathoner #whereirun #ukrunchat #instarunners #justdoit #london
