I had originally planned this as my first race as a vet 50 but then the Really Wild Boar race popped up so I really had no reason to be here at all. Several times before the start I did question why I was still doing it. However I had set myself the target of running under 45 minutes and getting as near to 42 minutes as possible. Trying to do 7 minute miles or better.
7 minute miles = 43.45. I ran 44.14 so just missed that one.
I think I ran at a fairly consistent pace. Passing a few in the first half but being passed by a few in the second. They didn't gain much on me
A little disappointed but generally pleased. Especially when I consider my lack of training on the road.
'Not bad for someone of my age' to quote KA at the finish.
