Rach E Decided to enter this at the last minute as a nice, hard training run (which obviously means race ;o)). Also wanted to see how my legs would cope with another race following two races yesterday. Probably the worst conditions I've ever raced in (bar the half mara near NY). The course was mostly offroad and included a brutal, steep climb up to the Lansdowne Monument near Calne. The wind was freezing, it was wet and four miles in I couldn't feel my feet or hands. I was actually blown off my feet at the top of the hill. Anyway, I broke the course record by nearly two minutes and was first female and third overall. What other races could include an 8:59 mile followed by two miles at 5:50 pace? Fantastic :o) Aldershot, Farnham & District AC, Team Kennet, Newbury Velo 48:34 72.02
