beffrey Scaaaaaary. My first race this year and just want to do myself justice. A bit disappointed. Took on too much liquid. Was going along nicely but got one hell of a stich between 6km and 8km and even had to stop twice. Finished with a marvellous sprint to finish though and actually ran the last km in 3:30.

Fast&Furious Only my second ever 10k race, so hoping I will have learned some lessons from my Yateley run earlier in the month. Very pleased to beat my PB by 15 seconds. Finished 4th in my age group and 34th overall. Woking AC 36:29 36:51 39:00 36:51 78.24

jbean I did this last year it was my 1st ever 10k. Am really excited to be back doing it again. I know I can do it faster then last years time but whether I'll make the sub 60 I long for I'm not sure. Unaffiliated 1:03:47 1:03:47 1:05:00 1:06:49 46.24

Lizzybagwash Ran this last year I'd love to break an hour for this, but think it's unlikely now as for some reason they sent me a pink number instead of green and they will not change it so I will have more work to do to get my time under an hour Unaffiliated 58:56 58:56 1:04:00 58:56 54.56
Lumsdoni DO NOT BET ON ME - will be pacing Mrs Lums round to hopefully a 60minute time. Well we revised the time to beating her 1:12 PB, with a second target ob sub 70 mins - we did it!! Trail Running Association, Stotfold Runners 46:14 47:17 1:05:00 1:09:47 38.42
MattJ My first ever race. Should be able to get in under the hour, provided I can start at a reasonable pace. Really looking forward to it! did it in under an hour whih is great, but managed to tear ankle ligaments and cant walk right now ... oh well, pleased I finished it Unaffiliated 53:40 58:30 59:59 58:30 47.38

normanom Fabulous day. Great atmosphere, well organised and nice goodie bag. Second race for me, managed to take a couple of mins off my previous best, so happy with that. Orpington Road Runners 59:41 1:09:24 1:09:24 41.21
oceanspirit I'm hoping to improve upon my first 10k. Even taking a few minutes off my first 10k race and I'll be happy. Betting is at your own risk. Unaffiliated 1:00:53 1:07:06 1:10:00 1:11:38 42.35

sallykate My first post-marathon race -- 8 weeks after Edinburgh marathon doesn't give me a lot of time to train but I'm looking forward to short fast sessions after all those long runs :-) FERC 1:02:30 1:02:30 1:05:00 1:02:30 49.97

Slowly But Shirley Missed out on this last year as it clashed with another race, so am looking forward to it this year. UPDATE: Loved it! Not quite a PB on this (sorry those who lost out on bets!) but not far off and much better than I thought I'd do. Was glad for the slight breeze and the fact it wasn't roasting this year or I'd have done a much poorer time. I would definitely do this one again next year!

SpankyChan This was a nightmare from the point of view of the number of other people taking part versus the size of the track. I think I ended up running an extra 0.5 to 0.91 km because of having to go around other people. Never mind having to shout at people who got in the way when I was coming up to the finish - why are people so stupid??? Unaffiliated 1:01:36 1:01:36 58:00 1:02:51 43.79

Sting Ray I ran this race on less than 4 hours sleep. not the best way to start a race! but it is my PB now. Dagenham 88 Runners, Pitsea Running Club, Flyers Southend 44:48 51:46 53:00 52:10 51.21
Stokie Well, I wanted to try and get below 50 mins but I was ill most of the week and unsure whether to run. I decided to run yesterday but then nearly ruined everything by sleeping in and nearly missing the race - I got there just in time. All things considered I'm happy with another 53min (just!) 10k.

Treacle Would like to consolidate at sub 60 for this one, but I doubt it will be a PB as it will be too busy and likely to be hot. So don't bet unless you like giving away all your points! *update* flipping heck! A most unexpected and enormous PB! Unaffiliated 52:29 56:17 59:59 56:17 54.66
