For you distance runners I know this isn't a huge deal but it's a big milestone for me! longest i've ever run and in a time I am quite happy with personally (1hr 45mins ish). And I felt ok at the end, my legs were sore but it wasn't a "ok i'm gonna drop down and not move an inch" afterwards. In fact a few hours later i'm still on a big of a high!
It was just a training run, doing anther 15km next Sunday, then scaling back to do a 10k race, and then a relaxed 10-13 in preperation of the race I am training for on the 23rd. the race actually two races, you run the 5k at 8am then the 10k at 8:45. So depending how fast and how close t the front i am for the 5k, i should have a bit of a break (10min?) to grab a snack and water and line up for the 10k. This training run was to prove to myself I can do it
The long runs are sorta sweet as it gives you enough calories for quite an indulgent meal

I'm in awe! When I press the "Run" button on screen at the gym and get going at 10kph it's just a matter of minutes before the screen becomes so blurred that I keep missing the "Walk" button so many times and I end up doing a whole 0.5k!0

Every time you reach a new milestone, it's a big deal. Congratulations.
At your double race, be careful not to go out too fast with the 5k or you're going to really be struggling at the end of the 10k.0 -
