Aviemore Half-Marathon
The rain held off, but the wind didn't. The sun didn't shine, but the temperature was pretty perfect. I had the most spectacular fall just before 5 miles and even after the first aid folk had a good go, I'm still removing grit from the Coylumbridge road from my palms, elbow and knee. If you see any photos from the race with someone who looks like they been fighting, that's me. I picked myself up, wiped some of the road from my hands on the grassy verge and tried running again. My right knee was not quite behaving and I was limping, which was bad news. Still, I was moving, so I took it easy until the loch came into view and then tried to re-focus and get back to a sensible pace. It took me about three miles to finally stop and deal with the cause of this - a flapping shoe-lace (triple-laced, but stll came undone - I've been at them with the scissors since). The bicycle track back into Aviemore was entertaining, even if it did wiggle about all over the place and go up and down when the road alongside was nice and flat. Speaking of which the Garmin got 1645ft up and 2035ft down. It's not accurate, I know, but it still says that that it was a damn hilly HM course. Paced it right in the end and still felt quite bouncy over the last few miles. Took 20s off the PB which was a bonus (and not expected, considering the fall), finishing just a second or two behind ClaireT who was running well.
And that was a CTRL+V in case you hadn't guessed.

9 miles of trail & beach, watching the coast being battered by angry waves driven by a strong SW wind - which moderated my pace more than somewhat on the way back home

Brill. I paced one of my best mates on her first 10 miler and she came in 17 minutes better than she expected. I blubbed on her as we crossed the line! What a spacker:)
