brotherjohn Bit of a disaster when I realised about half way there I had forgot my Garmin, so had to run the whole thing on perceived effort. So pleasantly surprised when I got to the finish and crossed the line at about 1:16:35! (Official time Chip 1:16:37 and gun 1:16:39, 33rd) Dorset Doddlers 1:16:37 1:16:37 1:16:20 1:16:37 87.09

Flat Out Fi A perfect day for racing!!  I love doing this race - theres a great atmosphere at the start with music blasting, a dj interviewing loads of people and one of the best organised races you can do!

I started in the sub 1.30 area hoping to achieve it and was really pleased to finish in my 2nd fastest time over this distance!  The course is pretty flat and quite fast and always has a good crowd!

Girlie After RH half, I know I can do better, I'm now aiming big and am going for 2:06:59 to get the next club standard.
Even if this is too much of an ask I should get 2:10 as plan b:-)

***UPDATE*** plan A executed perfectly and I came in well under the 2:07 I coveted.  Official time now in 2:06:18:-) Very happy with that:-) Lonely Goat RC 2:06:18 2:06:18 2:06:59 2:06:18 53.85
