So yesterday I ran the Hamstreet 10k, my first 10k race in 3years. On the website the course was referred to as flat and slightly undulating, but in reality it was half a mile on the road and 5.5 in Hamstreet woods. Due to the conditions (slippery mud) fast times were not really achievable. I felt that i had a good start to the race, but seemed to struggle in the middle section, maybe this was due to lack of longer runs in training. However I managed to pick it up at about 7k and had good end to the race finishing in 52.13. As I haven't run a 10k in about 3years I got a PB. I would like to have run faster and had it have been a flat road 10k I probably would have, but all in all and with conditions taken into account I had a good day!
Lucy :D
