taulpaul Excellent big city race. Great start, support and bands en route. Good last long run and race before my taper towards by full. Was well pleased with my time being faster than Bristol several weeks ago and fastest half in 6 years. Finished in position 1552 out of 12862 finishers Birmingham Swifts 1:33:28 1:39:07 1:39:07 61.46
