10km is 6.21miles .......

rich-racer-uk - 2009-09-09 9:03 AM And for the first time I've just run it

Not the fastest time in the world 1hr 12mins but even so I'm chuffed about it.

I've been going out and hitting anywhere up to 8k recently but have always either ran out of light or had cramps etc.

So yesterday I set myself a goal at lunch and went out and hit the streets. 1hr 12 mins later I was back home after jogging (not running) non stop for 10Km. My knees hurt a little and my right glute is complaining but  milestones are milestones and this is another one crossed off.

I'm also pleased that I've actually completed the distance before by XTerrain Oly Tri in 2 1/2 weeks, as it was always a concern in the back of my mind whether I could make the finish line without stopping (always a target for me).

Anyone else hit any running milestones?
