THE RACE - stuck to the training plan religiously, fed and watered myself correctly, even joined a pilates/yoga class......and all to get a f*** off cold and hacking cough the week before the race. GRRRRRRRR

No matter, set off at race pace but couldn't sustain in mile 3 due to chest tightness and breathing issues, slowed down and tried to enjoy through the grimaces. Sped up in last two miles to get it over with...forgot to stop watch and only measured in at 13.02! Good cornering skills obviously.

Disappointed not to get the time after so much effort, help and support but pleased that a). finished despite cold and b). was 15 minutes faster than last year. Not a PB but hey ho, always next time.

Huge support on the day from BFL who coaxed me round and refused to go on and get her sub 2.
