On a more serious note: well done on your run – that’s a speedy time. Have you got any more (non-crazy) HMs planned to break through the 80 minute barrier?
Got a HM in Luxembourg in a couple of weeks’ time where I’ll aim for 1.19.59! It’s meant to be flat (ish) and quite popular so hopefully a few people to pace myself with. Was 24th after 11km here and … 24th at the end, having not seen a soul for the last 10km. Excuses excuses and all that..!
Good luck with Luxemborg. I think that is a valid excuse: not having anyone to work with makes a big difference – otherwise it becomes a time trial as opposed to a race. I am going to run my first half in over a year at the weekend. Watch this space…
Surely you were 8 seconds short…
Oh, and sympathy blah…
haha, yes, good point!!
