Go-KL Still to date my personal beat for the half marathon and the only time I have dipped under 1hour20 for the 1/2 Marathon. Was training hard for a marathon but not really following any fixed structure, except I was running often and quick and cycling to and from work around 120 miles a week. My best until then was a 1:22 the previous October but this run felt special from the off. It was unusual in that I had decided to wake up at 3am to watch the Australian GP before heading down the 100 miles or so to Reading, arriving late so I had to run from the car park to the start. Maybe it was the extra hours up or the run down that helped, or maybe it hindered and I could have gone even faster but whatever, this, to date, is my most satisfying race to date - better even than my sub 3 marathon. To feel relaxed up until 10 miles then notch off three sub 6 minute miles whilst it all felt so easy was enormously satisfying. Indeed had I really pushed myself I reckon I could have gone a good minute faster. I still have the picture of me finishing - it is one of my favourites. Hopefully soon I can get back to that sort of pace - until then I have the great memories of this race. Grantham Running club 1:14:46 1:19:15 1:22:00 1:19:15 73.15
