Hi TheEd,
Result of 10K trail race - managed 45:15. Route actually measures 10.45Km. Was a bit slippery after some rain last night, its quite a tricky course. PB last year was 46:42 so pleased to improve on it.
It was very warm 22-23C. Been feeling under par last few days, heavy legs and poor sleep quality. Wasn't up for it at all when got there. Legs were like jelly after 2K's! Nearly pulled out as felt rough with stomach upset. Got to 5k's and just stuck in there. Stitched kicked in rest of way - managed a decent finish, however overall well under par. Would have been interesting to see time if had been sharper and on form.
I've got to go away on work next week, so going to have a break for few days to refresh and start a new 19 day cycle a week tomorrow - next race is July 10th, 10Km road race. It supposed to be quite undulating, not a PB course.
Will keep posted upon commencing new cycle. Hope you training is going well, thanks for all your help,
Regards,
Daryl
