Taupo Parkrun.
Went out too fast and came home faster.
Perfect conditions, cold and still, and a pretty flat course so seemed like a good opportunity to see how fast I can actually run at the moment. I was guessing about 21 minutes but after a faster start I had slipped to a 4:13 second km, my breathing was out of control and my heel was starting to hurt so I thought it would be a stretch.
Hit the turn in around 10:25 and thought I would have to really push the return journey to be within striking distance of 21 when I got near the finish. I must have recovered a bit from my too fast start with inadequate warm up and actually picked up the pace quite a bit on the way back which I did not expect. Really felt I had given it all I had by the end so good to know where I stand at the moment. Heel not hurting at all on the way back but started to hurt a bit, along with calf, pretty soon after finishing.
