Great Eastern
1/2 Mara PB (un official - am hoping the chip timing was to the first mat not the second..............fingers crossed!!!)
I now realise the trick for me is to just enter a race and enjoy with no expectations - was keen to enjoy - sub 2 hrs would be happy - 1:56 pleased and anything close to PB fantastic.........
Despite the torrential rain at the start and then heavy for the first 8 odd miles and soggy feet really enjoyed this all of the way round. Felt really good the whole way
Had the usual trying to keep the feet on the gas after 10 miles and dropped a bit of pace but overall very pleased!!!
Garmin days 8:30 mm av which was my ultimate goal - now if only I can learn to keep the racing line - I swear I tried to do the shortest route possible (obv without cheating) but still over at 13.3 miles........
(I hit the lap button at 10 miles to give me a goal for Fenland 10 next week)
Great support from locals, WJ, local clubs despite the rain - thank you! Kevlar made me smile the most when he shouted "come on Karen it's only a half" LOL
Happy days!
