Gave it some welly this morning and ran my quickest since late January. 20:42 but it was bloody hard work.
Got a local 10km race next Sunday (one of my favourite races which I’ve not done for two years due to injury) and have no idea how I’ll pace it and what my target might be. Maybe 44 mins….

10km low-mid 43’
Low 43 if you’d been 10k training, how is the endurance, enough in the legs to not fade?

I never 10k train. Endurance at that pace I’m not so sure about either. Maybe I’ll just make a call on the day based on the weather!

Went to the quicker parkrun today as I’m trying to do a few weeks of running before the half marathon, but it was windy and cold 
Aim was to hold 4:10K’s, pacing isn’t my strong point and the Garmin current pace can be a bit inaccurate.
First was a bit quicker but started getting a bit better but still too fast 
clung on and ended up with 4:04K’s and final time of 20:30 as it’s slightly long.
Pleased but it was hard work today, but I did do quite a hard Zwift race last night.
Was only good enough for 30th, quite a decent field out today, winner was probably in the 15’s!

Crikey, just had a look at the results from this morning, clearly a northerly makes it a fast day, 8 PB’s in the top 18 and a few others further down, but it does mean you get a bit of assistance up the drag.
A JW11-14 came second with the same time as a lad I know who I think might have been pacing with her as I saw them warming up, both finished in 16:31! She got a 96% age grading 
if she continues that trajectory she’s going to be winning a lot of races at a good level.
