I've finally done it

10.13km in 1hr 0m 3s.

Well that was tough...9 weeks out from the Reading Half Marathon, the JD running formula called for 10E + 2 x (20T + 10E) - read that as 10 mins Easy followed by two sets of twenty minutes hard (Threshold) with 10 mins easy recovery.

Recoveries included about 2 mins walking, but was almost heaving after those hard runs :) Had to dig deep towards the end of them, using all sort of psychological tricks to keep going.

Probably resting tomorrow, though I've said to a work mate I'll go for a cycle at lunch.
