🤍 GAINSBOROUGH 10k 🤍 One year ago I ran my first ever race, a 5k Trail at Brockelsby Estate. I was pretty clueless and even needed someone to tell me how to put my bib number on! What an achievement that was for me to complete.
The running bug has stayed with me and on the same day a year later I ran the Gainsborough Morton 10k chasing a PB which I managed 🙌.
For the last few months I’ve worked hard, running 3 days a week under the guidance of my amazing run coach Jack and I got what I hoped for 😊!
Running is always more of a mind game for me. Doing things like this pushes me past belief barriers and makes me realise I can do more than I believe I can.
This runs mantra my coach once told me while I was chasing a PB and I said it was hard, he said: It’s supposed to feel hard!
So while at 7.5k and I wanted to walk because I found it “hard” I used this and dug deep because it’s okay if it’s hard. 🫶
Here’s to my last race of the year and to many more PB chasers and friendship maker races. 🥂
