Hi there everyone,
This is my fist posting to the forums and judging by all the other threads I'm hopeful of some useful advice.
I've been running now since June and am loving it. I can easily do about 4-5 miles but have only gone further than that once so far. I have good recovery times and always feel that I could go further at the end of a run than I have done.
I've registered for a 10k at the end of the month and am looking forward to it but as I haven't ever run that distance I done't know if I can.
Any ideas or encouragement would be gratefully received.

Don't go off too fast and just enjoy your first race.
Good luck!
As has already been said, don't start too fast, and you'll get there )
I went out today and actually ran for an hour as I think this'll be about how long it will take me to do a 10k - and it was fine. I think a lot of this is in the mind! It's the 10k in Stranraer in the far South West of Scotland so it may be the waether rather than my legs that causes any bother!
Thnkas again - I've read the forums but it's really nice of people to take the time to post encouragement!
