Well its one way to spend a chilly Sunday morning (other options are available!), but the sun broke through towards the end.
Nice run along the sea front with about 500 hundred other people so not a large event. My only negative point was it was 2 loops of a 10k-ish route either side of the pier so I ran past the finish line multiple times.
Got a few minutes off my 10k and HM PB's which was good, but I really need a good few months over the winter to try and speed up a bit... legs OK... cardio not so good.
Happy running peeps... guilt free sofa time for me

Congratulations!!!! Another piece of bling for the trophy cabinet. It looks gloriously sunny on your finish photo! I like small local races! Less faff! I know what you mean about running the same bit twice. It seems to make it twice as hard. That's only happened to me once and that was in a 10k so I can't complain
So, a nice rest up for you then. Curry or chilli seems to go down well after a gruelling run.
Good luck with the cardio! I did mine at home this morning, and my abs and strength. All grist to the running mill!
we've got the Gosport one in 2weeks, went on longest training run today, 20k, SO hard!! i'm knackered!! well done on that and your future endeavours!! not 100% sure i'm cut out for much over 10 miles!! enjoy your rest this pm x
Congratulations Andy! My super speedy sister ran in this today too! She is not a C25k-er, but is a huge inspiration behind me getting running again. Running past that finish line earlier in the race must have been hard!😮
Many Congratulations!! That sounds tough running past the finish line...i would be like i am coming to get you. Guilt free sofa time is 100% needed and a nice relaxing week to follow on.
Looks like a fab day to do a HM. it looks like summer rather than the 1st Nov. Bling, PBs and sunshine, it doesn't get better than that.
Beats my Weston-super-Mare cross country (aka cross dunes) not-runs in school PE several decades ago.... (that's a fake photo - that can't possibly be SEA in the background ;-))
