Smoggy This was my first race and I was very nervous before the race started.  I started running about 7 weeks ago to get fit and try tolose a bit of weight.  I decided to enter the Bananaman Chase to give me something to focus on and to make sure I kept up with my training.  As I live in Middleton which is close to Willen Lake this was the ideal race for me to start off with especially as my training runs were round Willen Lake anyway! I really enjoyed the race I was aiming at running flat 5'00 Billingham Running Club 37:08 45:56 50:00 45:56 58.85
Tim of Fife 56th out of 400 finishers.  3rd best ever time over 10km

My stop-watch time (which is the only one I care about) was 48:08.   

I went off a wee bit too fast.  I also suffered in the latter stages from lack of training runs above 5kms.  I just haven't got the endurance at faster paces.

Nevertheless,  this was still my third best 10kms ever,  so dead chuffed.

Km splits:-

1st - 4.30,   2nd  -  4.36,   3rd -  4.40,  4th - 4.49,  5th - 4.50  (First 5kms - 23.25)  6th - 4.54,  7th  -  5.02,   8th - 4.47,   9th  -   4.54,  10th -  5.06  (second 5kms - 24.43). 

The last km was bemusing, as I thought that I was really 'motoring'.   But perhaps the tiredness was befuddling my brain.
