Racing a 10k is The BEST Way To Test Your Fitness - Leeds Abbey Dash 10k

I hit up the Leeds Abbey Dash to test myself over 10k, taking you along for another 10k race vlog. I'll admit that my fitness is not where I want it to be for right now, but that's no reason not to race - after all, racing is SO much fun and a huge reason for why I love this sport. So I'll be trying to answer the question: should you race when you're not in PB fitness? And talking through some of the reasons why you should race when not fit, and the idea of racing to fitness!
