Gobi Nice day out in the midlands for a 5miler and looks like a good Fetch turnout as well. Apologies to those I did not meet as I seemed to be running all the time. 

13th place and 27.51, thats basically 5.34 pace in January after a late night and base training. Impressed by the quality of the field.
Average HR is very encouraging as is the feeling that I could have kept going.

The report etc.

planned to go out at PMP (5.45) and then kick on after 3 miles. This plan lasted 2 strides as I went off at 5.20 mile pace. Soon realised I should get a grip but decided to hold mid 5.30s. Slowly moved through the field and kept pace all the way to the end.

1.02m 00:05:36 10.87mph 13.52mph 153bpm 160bpm
1.00m 00:05:36 10.66mph 12.19mph 161bpm 163bpm
1.01m 00:05:43 10.57mph 12.10mph 163bpm 166bpm
0.99m 00:05:29 10.86mph 12.28mph 165bpm 167bpm
0.97m 00:05:24 10.80mph 12.28mph 167bpm 170bpm

Mileage for the day so far 9.5 and have another run to do shortly. Looks like 2008 has started as 2007 ended.

KinkyS Watch time as I started at the back of the field in a fit of over-cautiousness.  My third race in three days so very pleased to be able to maintain a reasonably brisk pace on knackered legs, and lovely to get together with a few fetchies too :-) Todmorden Harriers & AC, The Green Runners 33:47 33:47 36:09 65.99

Rach E Entered this last minute. Not quite a pb but very pleased with performance given my health recently. Was able to back off slightly when things hurt and not really drop pace. Consistent mile splits and finished 3rd senior woman. There are some fast runners in the Midlands! Nice to chat to people, particularly Phal, Kinky & Flanker.
