i wos rubbish. terrible race. didn't feel fresh at all and legs got really heavy. because nothing was going right I mentally talked myself out of it by mile 5 or 6 and now looking back it's just annoying. oh well. quite cold and bitter head wind at a couple of points... hilly too for a lot of the first 6 or so miles. really should have done better. but didn't. just not good enough. don't know final position yet, but 19th I think. 58:03 for 10miles. Should be much closer to 55:00, so very disappointed. going to go out and do 12 just to take my mind off of the race.
i guess my legs hadn't recovered from wednesday and thursday nights decent workouts. feel like a right plonker for finishing so far down the ranks. knickers to it all.
