I finished in a time of 1 hr 44 mins and 50 seconds, which was a whole 10 seconds inside my target time!!! and around 7 and a half minutes better than my old pb.

Didn’t go off too quickly and even “killer hill” didn’t seem quite so bad this time. It was still tough, but I still had something left after climbing it, to be able to do the last 3 miles fairly strongly.

Most important though, I enjoyed myself and had a great time.

Edited on 26/06/07 – Feeling it now though, my legs are killing me, my calves felt tight for the rest of the afternoon on Sunday, now, it’s my quads and hamstrings which are giving me gyp.
