2 and a half mins off my 10k PB tonight 48:13, should have went a bit quicker as there was plenty in the tank at the end.

Aye, been at it a good few weeks now. Well off the pace though, it was 3 months in total between getting injured and starting interval training again. Reckon I’ll be competitive again by Xmas.
Cheers for asking

Inadvertently did my fastest 5k of the year this morning when it lashed down for the last mile of a 4 mile run so I had to put a spurt on.
Still got a mildly painful and swollen foot but I think it is manageable and I'm gradually building back up. I'll be happy if I'm doing regular comfortable 10k runs by the end of the year then I can work my way up to half marathon hopefully in time for the Sunderland one.

Anyone got a link to the signup page for this years Doorstep events?
May 12th for Sunderland 10k and Half Marathon.
Sunderland City 10K – Just another WordPress site
Not going to tempt fate by signing up just yet but the half is definitely my target.

No routes yet? Assuming they will include Spire bridge.
What shoes required for Gibside, is it all on gravel type trail or grass?
Great if they could include both bridges and the seafront but I suspect it would be pretty difficult to get a route that closed the Spire but allowed full access to Queen Alex Bridge.

Bit of grass. If it's a dry weekend, I would wear roads. If you're comfortable wearing trails, I would probably wear them.
Aye you can normally turn up on the day. If you pay before hand at least they'll get an idea of numbers for bait.
Finished couch to 5k yesterday. Managed my 5k in 35:12 and was well chuffed. First time I’ve run a full 5k.
Next aim is a Virtual 5k and a Parkrun.

Well done. Parkruns are great, you'll love it. (I suspect we may have hounded you about this previously
).Plenty of time to train for the Sunderland 10k as well.

Anyone running Leeds Abbey Dash 10k on Sunday?
Went for 5 mile run this morning but accidentally paused my watch after 1 mile so it feels like it doesn't count.
I did glance at it at one point and was very surprised to see that I was doing seven and a half minute miles but turns out it was just half seven in the morning.
