jdarun May 2018 6:23pm, 27 May 2018 2,877 posts	0 jdarun What were you racing in before, wellies? A 10 min pb is remarkable at your standard, well done!
AJLB May 2018 7:43pm, 27 May 2018 53 posts	0 AJLB Hee hee! Adidas Boston's last time, these are comfier yet faster (and, no Nike aren't sponsoring me, although if they'd like to offer..)
Windsor Wool May 2018 8:39pm, 27 May 2018 3,572 posts	0 Windsor Wool I’m really pleased for you Chris. We knew you had it in you, now you do too!! I hope you’ll rest up for a while now..... Ajlb: wow!
Chris May 2018 11:13pm, 27 May 2018 1,001 posts	0 Chris That’s massive ajb well done, how did you find the route? Yep I’m happy now, I’ve pushed myself hard since London so now looking forward to a few easy weeks. Still not too sure a 2.45 is in the legs but at least I can go all out at London next year. Just gotten home after a 350 miles drive from Edinburgh, I’m tired but wide awake
Little Miss Happy May 2018 6:06am, 28 May 2018 805 posts	0 Little Miss Happy As has been said that is an amazing improvement at your level AJLB - well done. That's a long drive post marathon Chris.
Little Miss Happy May 2018 6:07am, 28 May 2018 806 posts	0 Little Miss Happy Just noticed the side bar jda - thank you - target is 2.54...........but my ego may be writing cheques my legs can't cash:-)
AJLB May 2018 7:54am, 28 May 2018 54 posts	0 AJLB Chris, nice running from you too! The route was much improved, quite a bit of the city to see at the beginning (albeit at high downhill speeds). The bit out to Gosford was a bit lonely as usual, but I enjoyed the tailwind after the turn. I'd certainly do it again.
