Fortunately, all the rest days I’ve been taking means my knee is *touch wood* more or less completely back to normal. I’m going to enter a 10k I haven’t run before so that I can stop comparing my times from last year and can move on from Lichfield. I agree, 10ks are pretty awful. I’ve no idea why I keep wanting to enter them.

I almost think the quote is wasted on the back of the shirt. It should be on the front. I love the colour although a few runners were complaining because it’s not bright yellow (like last year’s shirt). My head has been a little better this week thanks.

Thanks. If I’m in one piece after the half marathon, I’m going to enter the Cinder Path 10k in Sutton Park the following Sunday. If I don’t enjoy the scenery in Sutton Park then I’m not going to enjoy running anywhere. The finisher t-shirt is lovely and actually fits.

Sounds like a tough course. And 10ks are awful I think 😉

Looks like a good race.
Hope your head feels better soon?

Those sorts of races are not the most inspiring, but that finisher t-shirt is lovely (and a lovely colour too).
