edit: The results are out, I finished in 42:33, average pace 6:51 min/mile, also I finished in 48th position out of a field of 397

edit: The results still aren’t available on-line, and I’m thinking my finish time was closer to 42:48 which would average 6:53 min/miles – this is still a PB as my last 10K time was 43:26 (6:59 min/mile) – The results should be on-line this afternoon and I’ll confirm.

New PB – Delighted. 42:24 – averaging 6:49 min miles.

It was a strange start to the race, the line up at the start took for ever and I didn’t start my watch properly so I missed recording the first mile of the race.

Good race – I managed a good pace for the race and after the first mile I got into my own, I wasn’t being passed and I wasn’t passing people, however for the last mile I upped the pace and I took off in the last 1k, I was however piped in the last few yards by 1 runner.

it was a warm race, with the temp around 20 C, I didn’t stop at any of the water stops, so as to keep my pace up.

After the race my back was at me in the normal spots. (not my shoulder, but at the bottom of both my shoulder blades)

The results will be available in the paper tomorrow, but until then I don’t know for certain of my time (I think I saw 42:24 as a crossed the line)
