Although it was still 21C at 5:30AM, it felt much cooler than it has been because when the sun rose over the ocean horizon it was covered by cloud - I even ran without a cap today for the first time ever and found it to be much more comfortable without a hot sweaty hat on my head!! I am starting to feel a lot more confident about my HM in early April- I almost ran my HM PB pace today by myself!! Usually the race atmosphere makes me run faster and I struggle to keep pace up when by myself. BUT - the GPS trace looks a bit higgledypiggledy today so the pace may not be accurate

Brilliant, Bazza. You'll have no problems with your HM next month. And your time over that distance is also brilliant. Hope I'm running like that at your age!
Really Well done Bazza , yep that should do wonders for your confidence going into your HM .
A very good run ! xxx
Brilliant stuff Bazza - I reckon you'd be set to do that HM tomorrow! Well done.
Sounds a great run, brilliant. The tapering sounds good
That sounds a wonderful run Bazza. Go you!
That's a great run Bazza, well done! You should feel confident about the race with this one in the bag already.
Brilliant run Bazza, you are so well prepared for that race!
Love the new tapering technique, if I ever do a HM i think I shall adopt that approach 😀
Great Bazza! Well done! I where a cap all the time now, being thin on top and past skin problem on the face with sun damage on the scalp, I'd rather not wear one though! but a good job they can be washed..
Really brilliant Bazza, great stuff. As far as the cap is concerned, have tou thought of a buff? I believe they protect against UV...you too davelinks
Buff????
A buff is a sort of tube of fabric, you can wear it in lots of ways, some people call it a snood
Wow, Bazza, that's a fantastic pace for that distance and that temperature! What intervals were you using? The profile is very regular - did you set your watch, or do you count? Most impressive!
Love the tapering! You'll be ready for your HM, no problem.
