RFJ anything is possible, at the mo, feeling carp...... A year ago at 14st plus I did this in 41:04, in a fit good state.

Today, at just under 12 st ina very fit and heathy state, destroyed that time and my PB in the process by 53 secs.

I knew I was running well, but have shouted it from the rooftops as wanted to really see what I am capable of with out pressure of expectation.

The conditions were perfect for today and a large field of 2000 too. So to the off (after nearly fogetting my chip timer)..doh

1k - 3:48 and feeling good, too many people around though
2k - 3:48 happy with this, still very busy
3k - 3:53 get boxed in several times on the inside, bad move, move to outside
4k - 3:57 and hill time, not much so work hard and push
5k - 3:40 and down hill, mmmmmm lovely 19:08 5k and inside a PB
6k - 3:41 flat and the foot goes down and start to overtake like mad
7k - 3:42 as 6th k
8k - 3:44 catch a large group and push on, know PB is in the bag, aiming for sub 38 now...
9k - 3:41 there is still power in the tank, so it gets used and push on and on
10k - 3:33 no head wind so reallyy open it up, take plenty on the finish aproach, get caught once and finish

2nd home for club

37:32 Chip time a PB of 53 secs and feel there is still more to come.

so 3:32 better than last year, am I happy, UNDER STATEMENT OF THE YEAR

chumleywarner Wonderful race - perfect weather conditions, bit of a breeze but nothing to heavy. Hard going from 7 km, not a great deal left in the tank for a final push either..a PB by over a minute!! Southampton AC 39:05 39:05 39:59 39:05 69.16
CaniRuna Thought I held off at start but still did sub 6 min first mile.  Suffered on incline at 3km and never really recovered maintaining 6:30 pace there on in.  Breathing is fine, there is just no speed/kick in the legs so a little disappointed to not get closer to my PB of 38:37. Stubbington Green Runners, Royal Navy AC 35:27 37:26 39:00 39:30 68.43

speedy rob Wasn't sure about my time since doubling training after Christmas, but 4.04 per Km felt easy and I pushed on afer 20.28 at 5K (the hill slowed me a bit), with the second 5K in 19.50.  I'm very pleased that my extra training is paying off, and everything felt close to perfect on the day. Andover AC 36:40 40:18 41:00 40:18 70.17
