a rare slip up for me i thought no way after only 3 events would tidworth be cancelled but that just reminds me to look at the cancellation page so a return to salisbury it was no time i ran with aura in a pushchair and millie aged 7 in a time of 35m 51s around a beautiful flat course defo a pb i wouldnt be surprised if the guy who came first wasnt in top 10 of country 15m 41s lapped me twice on a 4 lap course.
The guy who won Salisbury (Harry Smith), is ranked 200th at 5k for 2022, his best time of the year is 14:45.
I managed my best ever finish, 2nd this week at Penryn Campus in 21:38, over 4 minutes behind 1st place.
im back my leg is healed although not on my best times list frankfully its not as flat a course as i thought it would be and i held back a bit as im still worried but i had to be fast today 22m dead as iain mc naughton was only 5m 34s behind me good job!.

Very early morning trip to Dublin to do Malahide. A lovely friendly team and a thoroughly enjoyable run

Cheers Golf....!
It was the strangest feeling finally managing to claim the No. 1 token. For the entire run I couldn't quite believe I was at the front. Heartlands is a very twisty turny course so you get plenty of opportunities to see the chasing pack, I was expecting someone to start closing the gap, but as each lap passed the gap grew. Although I could have eased off at the end I pushed on to try and claim a "Course Wars" gold, but you still have that honour by 5 seconds!
I have now run Heartlands on three occasions and each time the course has been slightly different. I almost went wrong at the first turn (Ken's Corner), last time it was 180 degree turn, but this time only a 90 degree turn.
when i won at dartford heath i had that strange feeling at the start over 300m ahead with only a youth for company i stuck behind him hoping he run out of gas he did i was still convinced i be caught until only 100metres from the line.

Felixstowe for me this weekend - flat and a good surface, but way too hoy for my liking. Still beat my best time for years by a few seconds.

I know it's only a fun role and nobody should expect professional pacing, but Hove Prom should be piss easy to pace, unless there was a really strong wind.
Just run even splits and use a running watch to keep you in pace with the target time.
