Mr.C Flatish race; very exposed so windy. Running with a pain in the left hip...not clever!! Later diagnosed with a stress fracture!
If it wasn't for cramps in the left calf, just before the finish line, would have broken 1:50. Oh well!! Unaffiliated 1:43:22 1:50:47 1:50:00 1:50:47 55.74

Flat Out Fi A hard race today in all that nasty, strong wind!! 

I did it in 1.32.28 and was 5th lady out of 161 and 64th overall out of 498 runners!

I was 5th lady overall and 2nd FV35!  Kathryn Chapman was 1st FV35 today   I noticed that my time was 1.30.40 last year,  but it wasnt really strong winds then, so Ill blame it on the weather!  ;o)

Our men won the team prize today so thats great!  Well done to the boys!!
