Another challenge that I will meet and beat next year is Midnattsloppet. This is a 10k run around Södermalm in August next year. The timing is great, it will be a month or so before the half marathon so it will hopefully help me get to grips with a race day and get my strategy fine tuned.

I have just registered myself for the race. I stuck myself in Group 6 which is up to 70 mins. I just cant see myself doing 10k in a hour but its 8 months away so who knows.

I have to admit I am nervous and edgy as well as being excited. Running on my own is one thing but with others… This still terrifies me which is why I so want to do it. I think also this is all down to me, my training and my mentality. No place to hide.

Its a race with a difference because it starts at midnight.
