This race taught me more than I expected.

I went into a 10K at Battersea Park feeling fit, confident and ready to see where the training had taken me. But things didn’t quite go to plan.
Looking back the next morning, I realised there was a lot more to take from it than a finishing time. How I prepared, how I paced myself, the pressure I put on the result and, ultimately, how little race experience I actually have.

Training is one thing. Racing is another.

This will be one of the most valuable experiences I’ve had on the Road To 2:45 so far. I can pretty much guarantee I’ll never approach a race like that again.

The pursuit of taking my marathon PB from 2:57 to sub 2:45 continues.
