It was an absolutely brilliant experience, 650 runners, need to check where I finished but it doesn't matter, I just ran 10k in 1 hour 3 minutes when last September I couldn't run 100 meters so very chuffed, happy and proud. Now to start planning the next one!!!

Bling photo to follow.

Run happy, run safe.

Whoohoo! Cracking good time! Running adjacent to water - my favourite ... from a land-locked west coast Canadian living on the Prairies 😜

I would love to but my best so far has been 63mins on my own, not sure how being in a race will affect things.

Almost sure if you are fit the adrenalin will pull you through quicker

fingers crossed then, i'd dearly like a sub 60 time hehe. Though I feel I may have a sneaky HM about to come out of the blue.
