faulky This will be a competative run for me. I am taking this very serious as i am running to raise money for Cancer Research UK.

I set a target of one hour when i started training and then changed it to 48mins! This was a little unrealistic and feel that 55mins is my target for this one!

Should Av Run Quicker Big thanks for M62Steve for this.
Not sure on time as I haven't run a 10k in over 12 months, hope to get under 37mins but just don;t know due to no speed training at all and the people you have to run around most of the way.

Obigone This will be a struggle for me this year! Having done the last 3, with progressively better times, I have been injured all year(foot) and haven't trained at all! So I will be happy to get round in 50ish mins! **Update** Well considering I haven't done a bit of training 53mins is not really that bad I suppose!! This in fact is the first race I've done since last years GMR. I was on target for sub 50 at 5k but fell away in the second half! Got a couple of shouts from fellow Fetchies on the way round(much needed, thanks!whoever you were! Ugg?) and let on to Pato1967 before the start. Stockport Harriers & AC 40:21 53:53 49:59 53:53 55.14

Nephi Very crowded at the start and did not get a clear run until after 4km by which time I knew target was out the window so relaxed a bit. Should have kept a better watch on the pace as I could have still PB'ed with a bit more effort in the second half.  Sorry for the lost bets.

The Mighty D Running as part of business team challenge through work. 7 very competitive blokes trying to not look competitive. Who knows what will happen. Would like to maintain sub 50min marker  for 10K race achieved at clumber last year. I-pod stated 46.30 but official chip time is 47.01. Not sure what happened there but still PB whichever way i look at it. Unaffiliated 45:22 47:01 49:00 47:01 56.67

willpalmer Having only done one run in the past four weeks this was a lesson in what happens when you haven't prepared. The main reason I had done no training was a worry about my knees but they gave me no problems Unaffiliated 46:42 50:57 45:00 50:57 51.82

McNewbie Didn't plan to PB but once the gun went, got carried away a bit and pushed outisde the comfort zone. Appreciated the changes to the course, allowed more space for overtaking/being overtook.
