Naomi P May 2011 7:01pm, 8 May 2011 8,499 posts	0 Naomi P Great race today, I do like this one, and I still love the Greenway. Nice that we got to do both this and VLM this year. Shame we missed most of you in the pub, we saw WW and Fizz but noone else. Good to see a few people about though
Half Empty May 2011 7:57pm, 8 May 2011 258 posts	0 Half Empty Managed a pb today making it round in 3:51:49. Was going really well (probably too well) until the moment we turned onto the greenway and my hamstring decided to remind me where it was. Had to coax it along to the end with regular walk breaks. Naomi, I didn't feel the kick when you went past me with about a mile to go

Thanks JJFlash for your company early on. Sorry to Fizz who was encouraged/heckled by my family supporters and any one else they were "encouraging". I could always hear them before I could see them!!!!!!! Until next time.............

lady alton May 2011 8:17pm, 8 May 2011 550 posts	0 lady alton Back home now and feeling a bit more human having eaten! an early morning departure from S.London meant I was hungry from about 14 miles onwards! however equalled (bar a couple of seconds!) my previous PB but considering my preparation I am happy with that! although the 4.30 still eludes me!
