Yep I ran 6 miles last night so I’m well on my way to 10k (6.2 miles). It was pretty hard going as the first half is generally up hill, getting steeper towards the 1/2 way mark. Of course the downhill was a relief after that!
I ran it in 1 hour 14 minutes which is about 12.5 minutes per mile. Many people seem to like a 10 minute mile. I would have done better but I really slowed down towards the end.
Yep I’ve decided to do some exercise for a change, so that makes twice this year!
I went for a run with a friend last week and we did lap round the nearby area. The route (estimated by google maps) is 2.1 miles
Last time it took about 25 minutes (from memory), this week we did two laps (that’s already an improvement) in 43 minutes. So we’re approaching the 10 minute mile.
I’ve also decided to take part in the Derby 10K in April
Long overdue…
I’ve not got a new pc running a AMD Sempron 3000, on a ASRock K8NF6G-VSTA motherboard with 512M DDR memory. Ok so it’s not the fastest but it only cost me £100 or there abouts and it’s just a bit quicker than my old PC (a 233Mhz PII).
I’m planning to resurrect my other PC (AMD Athlon) and use that for some Linux distro or other, this is to avoid upgrading my main PC from Windows 2000 Pro to Windows Vista
