Notes & Comments

That went well. With injury problems in the past month, a new distance, and a challenging hilly route, I wasn't expecting too much. I'd set a target of 1:12:30 and would have been happy with anything sub 1:15:00.

Knowing there were 2 big hills at the back end, I ran within myself at the beginning ... and was pleased to find that a comfortable pace was sub 7 mins/mile.

Yesterday's storms had subsided, but we got a drenching about 20 mins in and the wind was brisk. But the first real challenge came with a tough little hill after 3.5 miles - earlier than I'd expected. Fortunately we didn't run it all the way to the top but turned off the main road onto farm tracks, muddy, deep potholes and puddles, but downhill - with cows and horses as spectators.

Back onto the road and the big hill at 5 miles was a really long drag - pace down to almost 9 mins/mile. But what goes up comes down, and I made the pace back up there.

With the final hill at 8.5 miles I knew I was on for a good time if I could just keep it going - and I did, with enough energy still left for a bit of a burst for the final half mile, through the pack and a circuit of the running track.

A terrific varied course, brilliant marshals, and the best goody bag I've had so far ... and as an added bonus, I won a pair of Hoka One shoes for coming first in my age-group. I'll be back for this one next year.
