Good morning TheEd,
Things look cold back home in Ireland at the moment, I'm guessing Sweden is a lot colder, much respect to all Nordic runners :wow:
I had my 10k race yesterday, I finished in 40:37. I'm actually really happy with my time for a number of reasons.
1. The weather was terrible, it has rained really heavily here for the past few days, so they had to change the course. Unfortunately this meant that the course was not adequately measured and was 500m long.
2. It was a 2.5k loop course, with some challenging hills.
3. There were some x-country parts too on very soggy ground.
So all in all it was a worthwhile hitout (first 10k since September)
