Today was Simply so perfect Today we headed for Wokingham HM, it was to be our 161 ST HM together,
The weather was just so perfect, little did i know just how perfect the day would end up being... we met friends, had lots of laughs with people,
I knew today we could NOT race as race, as we have Draycote FM of 5 laps next week, so we set about hoping for anywhere around 2 hours or just under...
things started off just nice and quiet, could'nt move for 2 miles or so, which completely suited me, but i was to find gaps and soon get into my grove, and find what i am good at and enjoy doing.. i felt so happy, i felt free
it was very short lived though sadly, before we knew it we were through half way, never really noticing anything pace or distance wise, it was another day were we could have gone on and conquered 20 miles
trying to support fellow runners etc
i knew in our early days together we were clocking for HM's 1.43 onwards, but i really thought that that had gone now, what with Phillip being 6 years older and heavier, and of course me being an old git now
so, we smelt the finish in the distance, we pushed on remembering every time we picked up pace we had a FM next week, so i held back best i could
we eventually crossed the line on our watch at around 1 hour 48 mins , i knew we crossed the start line on about 4 plus mins, and the finish clock was on 1.52 , so yes
i felt so good, so really good, could'nt quite believe what i'd done
We went back to about 2 mile mark ish, cheering runners in, it was good to help others,
it's left me feeling just on top of the world again
So, i ain't finished yet !!!
There'll be more of Mick n Phil to come i reckon
