Cambridge Cambourne 10k

Really wasn’t sure if I was going to be fit enough to do this one (with a heavy, very snotty cold) but decided to turn up anyway. Glad I did!

It’s the 1st time I’ve done this 10k and it really suits my running style, being mostly cross country.

389th out of 705 runners, 52nd in my age range in 56:28 (chip timed).

Now I know the route I can practice it more often as I work nearby - maybe some early morning training 🤪

Great time! the course underfoot was just perfect, I wasn’t sure how this would go (it was a mud fest last year....) but really enjoyed it too, it was rather cool, but perfect conditions really.

I got 1hr 10, other half got 53:31 - he’s happy!

You’ll be in for next year then?.....😎🏅
