Just went for a run…

✅ Final 10K test run of 2025.

45:38 is nine seconds better than what I did in September, although I’ve had my fair share of coughs and colds since then, which have stifled any progress.

Still some way off the 40:46 I achieved twice in 2015, but I was training four or five days a week back then — I do half that now.

Nevertheless, I’m about 10 minutes quicker than October 2023, when I started getting back into running after years without any consistency.

I think a sub-45 is within reach in 2026…
