LSD with 10km run

I am basically a brisk walker rather than a runner.  Even though I have finished about 2 dozens of marathons and ultra marathons, I did it mostly in brisk walk.  Just like my Sundown 100km, I brisk walk 99.5km and sprint the last 500m.

I typically run less than 1/3 during a marathon and never really run continuous for 10km.  But with the nice weather today, I did it.  For the first 10km of today's run, I run continuously without stopping or walking.  I drink during my run.  The timing is slow though, it is about 1 hr 15 mins for the 10km.  I possibly can race walk the 10km in similar timing.  But it is a good result as I determined to improve my running instead of relying on my strong walking.
