I finished this morning in 1:03:34
. So, 40 seconds slower than last year and it felt like hard work from halfway.
I’m haven’t been sure that my running form has been that great given that the last races I have specifically trained for were in January and with all the multisport training I’ve done through the year running has taken a backseat.
It wasn’t particularly well paced either. I set off running 3:30-3:40 km’s and suffered as the race went on especially into the wind in the final 3-4k.
However I can’t be too unhappy. To be only 40 seconds of last years time in weather conditions that were significantly harder and with little specific training isn’t too bad.
