Race Category: 10K
Timing: 00:56:46
One8 Run is the race organized by Virat Kohli's brand and I did get a chance to see him as he flagged off the event.
This was organized on the same NICE road where the Bengaluru 10K (Tougher 10K) happens annually.
I had a wonderful run and very satisfied with my performance. I went in with a target of 56:59 target considering the 10K practice run I had just a week ago. And guess what, I was able to achieve this and clocked 56:46 which is my new official Personal Best now! I improved it by about 01 min 41 sec!!
Since my previous PB was also at the same route last year, I knew the 6 to 7 KM stretch has a good elevation, I had only one plan here: to run steadily and clock around 6 mins 45 secs for this 1KM. And I guess, I ran at 6:50 here in this tough section and due to which the subsequent result was very satisfactorily.
This gives me confidence to keep working on it and keep improving on the results as well.
