Hi TheEd,
Race went quite well. I did it in 40:36. It was not a typical course, with 1st km flat, than 2 and 3 downhill all the way, 4 and 5 uphill all the way and then the rest were flat. The splits were:
4:03
3:52
3:49
4:25
4:14
4:05
4:03
4:05
4:15
3:45
I tried to pick up pace after 7km mark to get a go at sub40 and did first 500m of 8th km in 1:55, but it turned out I could not keep up and I struggled for the next 2km and until the final kick to the finish line.
Starting the next round of the programme today
Cheers,
Aistis
