Agent Orange 47.40 official time.  47.29 on my watch - and my best ever!  A really lovely race, with the good folk of Goring turning out en masse.  Also Met Konaboy and saw Ceri.  As for the race itself, I thought I was just going out for a nice run.  But I ran the uphill bits better than expected and got to half way in what I thought was 24.17, then pushed on a bit and managed 47.29 overall.  This suggests a second half of 23.12.  But looking at my km splits I think the 5km marker was 100m or so late.  But how chuffed am I?!  Oh, and great medal. Unaffiliated 43:42 45:49 51:00 47:40 57.48

ceri Compared to others I seem to be at the abck of the pack!  Hope I can do it in less than 1:10:00 - fingers crossed.

Wating for official time but think 1:02 is pretty acurate.  Really enjoyed myself - spectacular countryside vistas and a nice atmosphere.  Hubby and duaghter really enjoyed it too.  Thanks for the cheering, Agent Orange! - Nice to see the FE vest in action.  Might get myself one.  Unaffiliated 53:26 53:26 1:10:00 1:02:00 49.26

Konaboy Very cold as per normal for Goring.  Well attended & very congested at the start meant for a slow first 2km.  Once at the top of the first rise though the crowd thinned a little. Spotted FE top in the distance and so upped the pace to catch him (Agent Orange I think) at just after 4km. Once at South Stoke it was good going up to 9Kms where a loop outside & a loop inside the rec meant you could see runners finishing - slightly demoralising to say the least.  Pleased with time considering recent injury and that I beat 'Humphrey' the camel (poss. the same one at last year's Maidenhead 10)!!! Reading Roadrunners 44:28 44:42 46:52 58.04
