Fat Boy Placed 5th / 189 finishers.  Good race along the promenade but shame about the strong headwind for much of the course. Carnegie Harriers 53:55 1:02:02 1:02:02 73.47
CottamRunner First ever 10 mile race - so got a PB! 
Slowed 6-10k after fast start, thought stretch target of 1:15.00 had gone.
Sneaked just inside with a quite pacey finish ..... subject to confirmation of official time.

Splits:
 
1k 4.17, 2k 8.29, 3k 12.59, 4k 17.30, 5k 22.03 (3 secs ahead of GNR).
6k 26.50, 7k 31.32, 8k 36.14, 9k 41.02, 10k 45.57 (slowed in the middle 5k - done in 23.54).
10.05k 46.11, 11.05k 50.59, 11.1k 51.13, 12.1k 56.07, 13.1k 1:01.00, 14.1k 1:05.48, 15.1k 1:10.27 (10k to 15.1k in 24.30 - ok in the wind).
16.1k (10 miles) in 1hr14.45 - last 1km in 4.18 (good pace).

Started in drizzle - ended in sunshine - wind against for 80% of the way - but in the last 2 miles a tail wind gave us a much needed boost!! My best ever last 500m - quite quick and passed a few - for once! Northern Veterans AC, Red Rose RRC 1:06:28 1:10:24 1:20:30 1:14:45 58.76
