Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Notes & Comments

After last Sunday's run I finally listened to my body and had a rest. I haven't felt back up to par since the Leicester Marathon, which took more out of me than I thought. So, after much eating and sleeping I expected very little from the EHH Boxing Day 10k race.

However, I was pleasantly surprised how good I felt. The first 2 miles were on main roads where the snow had melted and I got to the 2 mile marker in 14:55. The next 3 miles were on country lanes and a disused railway line and it was tough going on compacted snow. The next mile marker came at 5 miles, just after returning to the road, and I was ecstatic to get there in 38:31. I pushed hard to the finish and got home in 47:29.

This run reminded me why I love running. I had no great expectations and just enjoyed it.
Please wait... saving your change.
