On Strava Stats

23rd February, 2021

Strava tells me that the morning 10 km run was completed in 47′ 48″. I’m not going to argue with that. Strava also tells me that this is the fastest that I have run 10 km. I’m struggling to remember what time I use to clock back in the days pre-Strava and when I use to run half marathons for fun.

I remember some Battersea Park sponsored event around twenty years ago when I was pleased that 10 km was completed in under 45 minutes. Those days are long gone. The secret with Strava is not to obsess about timings (HELLO!) but to use it as a training log tool. Any run is a good run, right?
