Well...the Worksop Half, felt bloody awful at the start, convinced i had bad guts, some kind of bug after the shites and a hangover yesterday. Set off and tortured myself mentally for 5 miles, frequently considering stopping and going back, i was a mess in my head, the worst ever i think!!
At 5 miles i checked my watch to see 31:31.....hmmmm...double that gives me 63 for 10miles....another 20 min for the last 3...blimey, i could be close to my peeb....incredibly i suddenly felt fine, in fact it was as if someone had taken the weight of my body and my legs were just running along, light as a feather, this only lasted for about a mile mind!!!
This course was pretty tough, undulating only but alot of them. The 2 plus miles up hill around miles 8-11 out of Clumber Park is particularly burnt into my memory and although it was a major struggle towards the end i did manage to race the whole race, in so putting the ghost of Nottingham to bed.
My splits show that i slowed a little in miles 10 -12 but i did keep going, i think i need another half this year to get it right:-)
