Run > Race

Belvoir half. Great conditions - cool, but bright, with the wind only being an issue down the back lane towards Clawson. Felt good (too good?) for the first couple of miles, but the pace for the first 4 miles was never likely to be sustainable. Through 5 miles at a similar pace to Ashby 5 a few weeks back, and was just hanging on from 7 miles onwards. Mixture of going out too quick and being tired from all the miles/ultras this year so far meant that I couldn't work hard enough to get a decent pace for the last 5 miles or so. Felt very tough by the end.

Overall, a good reminder of the importance of pacing - tapering before Shakespeare will sort out the tiredness!
