10K



The last time I ran a 10K run was in aid of Freedom for Nicaragua, so you can calculate it was a long time ago. 25 years ago to be precise. I did two runs that year, one in Brixton and one in Hyde Park. Since then - nothing.
Danielle persuaded me to run the York 10K http://raceday.runforall.com/ with her [she is a veteran of such things.] My target was to a] finish, b] without stopping for a rest c] do it in under one hour. I managed all three, with Danielle finishing ahead of me. It was a beautiful day and surprisingly non-difficult [I cannot bring myself to write the word "easy"], no rush to do any more though.
One photo is from Aberdovey of the 2 premier runners in the family. The other is of the two happy finishers
