I broke my 10k record that I set when I was 8 today. My dad talked me into going 6 miles under the promise of no pickups. With 1.6 to go I made the dubious choice of saying that it would not be too hard to break my weak 10k record. My dad challenged me to prove that statement. I had to add a quarter and ran the last 2000 in 7:38 and the last mile in 5:59. I ended up running 45:12 (a PR by 32 seconds). |
