brotherjohn Good solid run, just tried to keep to 6 minute miles and felt pretty good for the whole race. I think I was 8th not 7th as on the results.place.But I was the 1st M50 with a time of 1:18:22. Course is  undulating and also a bit windy today so happy enough with that, certainly ran a lot better than last year. C&C did really well today, 3 team prizes, 1st M40, 1st M50 and 3rd lady!!

clare1976 Disappointed.  Wanted a PB and at half way was on course.  Let the hills slow me up a bit in miles 7-10 expecting to be able to push pace from 10-finish (all gradual down hill) but wind resistance put paid to that, really struggled to maintain the 7:3X pace when effort should have given 7:0X pce in those miles.  hey ho.  Fantasticly organised race with a friendly vibe and lovely countryside scenary. Spa Striders RC 1:28:16 1:37:51 1:37:30 1:39:15 65.39

Cazaroo Felt really strong today... thanks for the pacing group for holding me back in the first 6 otherwise would have gone off too quick. Pushed on from 6 as felt strong and never really had a bad patch. Last mile was a real dig in though to ensure sun 1:30. Still can't believe I've done it!!!!!

northern_runner Had a good race. Paced it pretty much perfectly, even though it's my first half marathon since March. Faster than I'd done at the start of the year when marathon training, and a strong finish. Feeling a lot more confident now.

Velociraptor This will be a PB attempt. 
REPORT  
And it would probably have been a small PB had those last three miles been *slightly* more downhill and had *slightly* less of a head wind. But no excuses. Conditions were excellent and I just wasn't good enough. By thirty-eight sodding seconds! 
An impeccably organised race, as always, and a great Fetchfest. Cumberland AC 1:37:44 1:38:18 1:36:29 1:38:18 71.04

Badger DNS. Sudden knee stabbing pains on Friday night. Didn't feel too bad on Sun at 7 am but decided it was probably asking for trouble to run. Given the twinges from just hanging around at home today, think it was the right call. See you next year, I hope. I've entered this race four times;two PBs, two DNS! TENTATIVE FERC 1:39:51 1:57:19

Stiggers Hoping to break 2 hrs at the first attempt.
Ok maybe not. A bit harder than I had anticipated, but at least it gives me a target for a pb!
Mon pm - Been annoyed about my time all day. Reasonably comfortable sub 9 minute miles (thanks 2hr pacer lady), then completely blew up at the top of the last hill in Abbotsley and shuffled in pain all the way to the finish. I guess my training wasn't good enough. Back next year!!! Royston Runners, Meridian Triathlon Club 1:45:55 2:08:36 1:58:00 2:08:36 45.91

Smile2 ooooo so disapointed did not go sub 1.50 but I might just scrape in as this is from the clock and it took forever to hit the mat.... I have a feeling I have missed it 'too much wine' but v happy as that is another pb for me which I guess as I have only ran 13 + miles once since March not bad going Bedford Harriers AC, Milton Keynes AC 1:50:29 1:50:29 1:52:00 1:50:29 61.56
