So despite my worst efforts (I was woefully underprepared) I managed to get around the "Spitfire 10K" on Sunday. This was at RAF Hendon museum and was part of the commerative events marking 75 years since the Battle of Britain.
Slightly annoyed that my timing chip failed but my GPS had me down for an avg pace of 7'12" per km so I'm claiming a 1:12:00 finish time (a PB)
May have something to do with the new shoes? Either way I got a very nice medal as reward for my efforts
(shoe pic to follow)
What a lovely medal, worth doing it just got that. Well done on the PB.
Well done. I loooooove that medal too.
It sounds like a fab event & I'm ever so jealous.
Shame that the timing chip failed but at least you have the GPS result & new PB too. Amazing.
Xx ☺
That is a superb piece of bling. Most envious of that one.
I saw an event erlier in the year which was also BoB theme and had a triptych of medals that linked togother to form a spitfire but to win all three you had to do the 10k, 10 mile and 15 milers on the same day which seeemd OTT even to me.
Well done on your 10k. Don't worry abou the chip time. Often a bit hit-or-miss tbh, and 1.12 is not a bad time.
That's a lovely medal - nice and different. Well done!
Wow! Great bling! Good time, I would have liked one of those, but not up to 10k yet...
I am so jealous! I saw this run and really wated to do it - but when I went back to enter the race was full :(.
Oh I love the bling, very nice ! Very unique 
Well done ! Sounds like a brilliant event , and a PB too ! xxx
I have to agree jealous of that lovely bling, great cause as well. Well done on your PB. All round a good egg of a race as they used to say, or not, that might of come from sketch shows😀.
Well done! A lovely medal to celebrate a new PB!
A huge well done, your an inspiration for me, I'm doing my first 10k in 3 weeks time and feels similarly under prepared!!! But if I can do nearly as well as you did I will be very happy! 
Cracking medal (said through gritted teeth) even as an ex Navy man I would like one of those
That is the best bit of bling? I know someone who would have loved to do that race, is it just a one off or maybe will they be doing it next year?
This was the first but the RD said plan is to make it a regular event... Would definitely do again
Such a lovely medal!!!!! Well done! You did it!!!! Congratulations
You say you were woefully unprepared, but you know that now and can fix it for your next one
You BLINGking well deserved that
Very nice indeed. Well done.
thats brilliant! well done, and what a medal, a real one to be proud of!
Fabulous medal, great time, very well done.
That's very cool!
Bling, but...
Ealing Bling
