So after an overnight stay at the Doubletree by Hilton MKStadium, I set out for my first half marathon and I’m really pleased with the results: personal best for 5k, 10k, half marathon and my longest run ever!
Running
Last Run Before the MK Half Marathon!
Hmm. Not sure about having to run some back and forth bits at the end to make up the mileage for some reason, plus it was slower due to numpty pedestrians on the first couple of klicks.
First Garmin fenix 3 Sapphire Run
The first run with my new Garmin fenix 3 Sapphire which means new metrics and reports. Plus I need to do a quickie review at some point too.
I Don’t Kneed This
Leisurely 5km run-commute then a sharp pain in my left knee. 
Manchester Piccadilly Treadmill 7.5k
A quick run in what became a packed fitness suite before dinner:
Sunday Best
I don’t do morning running: this was supposed to be a 10k with Ali but I was knackered so I turned back early. Ali’s pace meant it ended as a PB though… And I clearly need to adjust the strap on my heart monitor as it keeps slipping down and hence gives me a super-low reading!
Back in the UK
Well I’m back from my blissful two weeks’ holiday in Hong Kong, Vietnam and Ko Samui, so here was my first run-commute since arriving back:
Ko Samui Treadmill 5k
Hellishly hot here at Sala Samui Resort & Spa. So the Garmin was under-reading or the treadmill was over-reading. And then I forgot to turn my Garmin off…
Ho Chi Minh City Treadmill 5k
Waaaaay too hot and sweaty for the 10k I’d planned, and too soon after breakfast!
