European Cup and British Champs/Trials 10,000 m
I had quite a few nerves this last week. Knowing that this would be the best chance to run the CWG standard, believing I could, but having some doubts too. I had a plan: Make it to halfway in ~14:10 as relaxed as possible. This was what I kept telling myself to focus on. Don't worry about 10 km, focus on that first 5 km. Don't think too far ahead.
After 5 km, I told myself to get to 6 km, then 7 km, then 8 km. I roughly knew what the splits should be here and I was on 28:30 pace. No room for error. I got to five laps to go having to run 5:40 for the last 2 km. Here I started telling myself 'I can do this'. I just had to take it lap by lap, stay on pace and the last lap would take care of itself (although I didn't expect to finish with a 61 s last lap - do I have a kick now?). Huge relief when I crossed the line.
Splits:
70.3, 68.2, 66.3, 67.6, 67.8, 67.7, 67.3, 67.8, 69.1, 69.0, 68.6, 69.6, 69.1,
67.5, 68.7, 69.0, 68.5, 69.0, 69.6, 69.4, 67.7, 68.2, 68.9, 67.4, 61.0.
2:51.6, 2:48.6, 2:48.8, 2:52.1, 2:53.2, 2:50.3, 2:51.8, 2:53.8, 2:49.8, 2:43.4
