Well I managed to get round!

Was pretty tough, I've never done a proper run before and although I run a fair bit of short distance/high speed stuff to help my Savate (in the 3 months before Euros/Worlds) I've done almost no training recently because of a bad ankle injury.

I only heard about this run 3.5weeks before it happened and only managed 13 runs preparation as managed another couple of ankle injuries whilst running! Apart from 2x10km runs and a single 15km on Wednesday I'd only done 5k'ers!!!

I'd expected about 1hr55mins and was hoping to get 1hr45mins if I was lucky.

So I'm bloomin pleased to have got 1hr34mins!

Apparently 280th out 15,000 entrants.

Cheers,
James

Showoff!

I can walk 1/26th marathon if I'm lucky

Well done!

Well done jim i am very pleased for you.

well done, keep it going, great time, im just starting again after 2 year break.

Thats very fast, although you sound like a serious runner at any lenght. Me and my lady did one at the begining of the year and did it in 2:10. I was happy with that approx 10kph with out stopping!

Very well done James.


Fozzie
