I'm really happy with this PB as I knew that my previous one was set when I thought I was at my fittest and it was going to be a tough one to beat.

Previous PB was 8,356m. Endorphin party has started and will probably be going all day.
Boom, this is brilliant Stu!! B) Closing in on the 8500, very strong!

Thanks very much all, and it's about time I actually started to make some decent progress.

Typically, I'm already considering how to attack 8500m!! I'm never satisfied for too long as I start to see where I probably could have gone faster but hindsight always wears rose tinted glasses :mrgreen:

Four mins next up in the Spring Series and 1:37.2 to beat

🚨 30min PB +181m🚨 ...for Spring Series VIII. I wanted 7,800m so was pleased to be able to push the last 5mins and go further. Probably went off a bit quick and had to ease up to make sure I had something for the finish. 3 events, 3 PB's 😁

Well done Alex :D

Well done David. Sub 3 is a big milestone to break and you beat your previous PB by a massive chunk too
