FairWeatherRunner Pre-race: Initial target was sub 50 minutes. But have revised my target to sub 55 minutes. This will be a PB if I do succeeed. Post-race: The start was pretty crowded, there was a queue for toilets & baggage. But what can you expect with 8000 runners! Quite a fun mood & not too serious; so a good atmosphere for charity & beginner runners. My wife was running her first race & I wanted her to enjoy it. The race was pretty crowded all the way from start to finish. Lots of overtaking or slowing down because of other runners, though not half as bad as the GNR. I started a wee too fast in the 1st km, but coon calmed myself down. To be honest, I wasn't sure if I could finish within my target of sub-55 minutes. The race prediction calculator suggested a time of just over 55min.It was going to be close! 2nd km to 5th km, I started feeling the build up of lactic acid in my legs. I probably should have done more speed sessions at the pace at longer distances. I felt the doubt creeping in. My morale wasn't helped by the fact that the faster runners were passing by on the other side of the road at the 3km mark!!! :0 The route loops back on itself. There were a couple of cries of Elvet Striders 47:41 54:37 54:59 54:37 48.36

Grid A PB by 2 minutes 11 seconds, an unexpectedly result. However, at no point did I feel good or comfortable during this run - a dodgy week leading up to this race left my legs feeling tired and a bit achy. Frustrated that if legs felt better I could have done even better, but this was a much better performance than I was expecting. Bournville Harriers 45:33 47:15 49:00 47:15 55.96

Lapsed Athlete Before race thought that after all the hours I've been putting in at work sub 60 mins would be okay. At start of race due to sore right leg thought above idea was a good aim. Half way around and with soreness of right leg making it's presence felt though finishing was a good aim. Result ... PB by over a minute ... without really trying ??? ... god only knows how lol Unaffiliated 55:35 55:35 54:59 55:35 53.45

philbo 1st race since London Marathon and 1 or 2 injuries , set out to run around 57 mins so I'm happy i stuck to that, no reaction from my calf so hopefully I'm over the injury , set out slowly in fact the 1st 5k was very slow , picked it up a little coming home , enjoyed the race as usual and it was very well supported again , back for another Dash next year i think.

Rigel Woo! Despite feeling pretty grotty, managed to knock over 20 seconds off PB. Didn't check time or pace, just ran according to how I felt. Very surprised when I checked my Garmin after crossing the line... :) Redcar RC 48:04 48:51 49:50 48:51 61.32

Ruth Wanted sub-40 but considering it was my first proper 10k it's okay. I managed to start far enough near the front that there wasn't too much overtaking or crowding. It's a respectable time anyway. Unaffiliated 40:57 40:57 40:57 72.57
