doopy Very pleased, went better tan expected, also was 8secs quicker than 2 years ago. Vale of Aylesbury AC 22:05 22:05 23:19 69.94
Gobi 8th place overall moving from 18th after 2km

Never run well here, Updated

17.24ish, course came in long. 

I ran well so I am quite happy

For the betters at 5km on the Garmin it was 16.55 so would have been a PB Cannock & Stafford AC 16:16 17:02 17:26 75.94
Jock Itch Could have gone quicker on a fast course.  This course was tough.  3 killer hills.  Course measured 3.15 on Garmin ! Went off quick with Gobi and faded after 2k. Legs a touch heavy. Not running fluently but 19th out of 130.   Enjoyed it :)  Datchet Dashers 16:35 18:24 18:24 72.48
Rach E Turkey retention may take its toll on my time. ***UPDATE*** Ran a good race but the course was long and the undulations & twists of the course took their toll. I am pleased with how I ran as I averaged 5:53m/m pace on a course not condusive to speed. I will get close to 17:30 on a flatter course at proper length. 3rd place. Aldershot, Farnham & District AC, Team Kennet, Newbury Velo 17:52 17:59 17:45 18:45 78.58
SparkyMark Tried to go as hard as I could, though each k got progressively slower (bar the final k).  A twisty lap course around the town with a short sharp incline in each of the 3 circuits.  Though to be honest I did not expect anything spectacular.  I have not put the work in, so its just rewards.  A reminder on how much work I have to do to get back to Feb/March form.  Good to see RachE, Gobi and Jock Itch. Alchester RC (Bicester) 20:42 20:42 21:00 22:14 61.32
Ultra Sparkly Bridget (USB) Planning to enter on the day to escape the MiL for an hour or two! Buckingham & Stowe RC 26:54 27:41 28:00 27:41 56.63
