Last PB was set 5th of May, and needless to say I have had a lot of ups and downs, so it is so good to be able to PB on my favourite distance. Decided to go harder from start then usual, and see how far it could hold.
I was just remembering how many HDs, and allergies, you had getting to this point, so this was a very hard fought victory. Without your honesty, and 'failed' posts, it would be easy to assume that this wasn't a struggle. Very happy for you mate.

Was that slow down at 50-55 planned, or enforced? Excellent final 5 minutes 💪

Great work JA. May is a long time with no pb, but hopefully there's a few more to come before the summer. 17k can't be too far away but enjoy this huge increase for now.

Who knew that hard work pays off?!?! PB by 1 min 38 seconds!!!! This is possibly my proudest PB, as I was only hoping for getting 1:18.00, and in my wildest dreams I was hoping for 1:17.30.

Eyes closed for the vast majority of it, so I didn't let my preconceived ideas slow me down, and I took inspiration from Jo Andre and set off aggressively and hoped for the best.

I only started to wobble with 3k to go, but there were a few very major wobbles.

Wowski, like mentioned on IG Stu, this is just insane! You just take a leap over 1:17, and go well into 1:16 :shock: Loads of volume lately have probably helped out a lot. I think this is stronger than both a 8500 30 min and a 16500 60 min?

Seems like you had that same next-to-last-split wobble like me, where your mind goes "can this be held??" :lol:

No more of this "I have given up keeping up with you" now Stu, you are a real contender for a future sub 1:15 HM :)

Congrats, you exactly matched my pb, only difference is rating, I rated 24 ish. Think I was a few years younger though, so yours is better :D

We all could see how much you improved you already great fitness in the last months, but this is insane! I'm very happy for you and share your opinion: your proudest PB! Great to see when all the hard works pays off.
But you know: now your other PBs look a bit soft, you'll have to fix that :D :wink:

Who knew that hard work pays off?!?! PB by 1 min 38 seconds!!!! This is possibly my proudest PB, as I was only hoping for getting 1:18.00, and in my wildest dreams I was hoping for 1:17.30.

Eyes closed for the vast majority of it, so I didn't let my preconceived ideas slow me down, and I took inspiration from Jo Andre and set off aggressively and hoped for the best.

I only started to wobble with 3k to go, but there were a few very major wobbles.
Nice one Stu, big PB.

Outstanding Stu,

I did wonder if you'd be giving this a crack soon and I'm not the slightest bit surprised that you've set such a stonking PB. Awesome work.

The only problem is that you'll have to attend to the 10k and others now too, even if they are sprint distances for you.

SkiErg 1'=309m; 500m=1:40.3; 1k=3:35.3; 2k=7:35.5; 5k=20:18; 6k=24:35; 30'=7239m; 10k=42:09; 60'=14209m; HM=1:32:24
