Grey Badger Average run, didn't feel that strong and haven't really done any training for this distance so to get within 7 sec of my PB wasn't too bad. Northumberland Fell Runners 18:12 18:19 18:30 18:19 78.51
Heelandcoo Last minute entry! Not been doing that much running lately but hopefully the other training will have kept me fit. Not hoping for an amazing time just want to get round comfortably. (Are 5ks ever comfortable?!) *after race* Enjoyed it! Some of the route was part of my normal training run so felt at home. Started off fairly easy as it was hard to pass people, think that helped keep me going to the end. Pleased with the time, especially for only getting out running once a week. Claremont Road Runners 21:21 22:50 23:00 23:06 63.78
IanRunner A very fast course. My fastest 5k so very happy! Tyne Bridge Harriers 18:34 22:05 22:00 22:05 58.19
Lisrun Have not this one before although I have done other races in Exhibition Park. *Update* I should have bet on myself - it was a fast flat course and conditions were pretty good. Very pleased with a new pb. Now to get under 23 min ! 100 Marathon Club, North East Marathon Club 22:28 23:01 24:00 23:01 66.65
Screeners My PB for this is 27 mins 04. If I was running well, I could beat this but I'm not running well so just don't know. *AFTER RACE* Not a PB but not a PW either. Only 30 secs of last year's time and I was doing much more training last year. Really pushed hard from about 3K marker and by the final 500 metres felt wobbly and very very breathless. But I did it and am I'm pleased. Its given me some confidence back. Was nowhere near last and was nowhere near the last harrier running either which also gave me some confidence. I like this race, it feels very short. Hard but short. Elswick Harriers 27:04 27:38 27:38 53.82
