brass monkey PB woohoo!!!

well race day came and i was suprisingly calm it was a cold fresh morning and in the hr leading up to the race i changed 3 times!!! but finally sorted myself and was ready at the start....my stomach was churning and we were counted down and AWAY set off like a steam train ran the first 4 miles sub 8 which i knew would catch me later on but i felt so good i saw no point in easing off at the 10k point id clocked my 1st of 3 pbs in one race 49.21 very chuffed i couldnt go wrong now so pressed on running around 8.10 til the 9 mile mark then stated to blow a little so walked through the drink station at 9.5m and then set off with new purpose of cracking a 10m pb which came in 1.21.19 bloody chuffed now but very tired mies 10-11 and 11-12 were very difficult running at almost 9 min miles but as i approached the 12 mile mark id recovered and pressed on back around 8.20 pace but it felt a lot harder and as the finish came in sight i managed to push very hard to past 8 people in the last 200m to a new pb of 1.48.18 and i couldnt be more pleased
what a top day i enjoyed it from start to finish and cant wait til next year!!

on the down side yesterdats efforts have left me very stiff very sore and 2 black toe nails to boot!! so having an easy day today then back to the club tomorrow

be good
