RichardNathan Wow. What a result for me! This I was not expecting. Having been out the night before and not training fully (one 11.5k run only in the week leading up to the race) I was not expecting a PB.

In fairness I think I could improve on this time. The thing about the Regent's park course is that it's so flat and i wizzed around the first 4k in around 16 mins and ran the first 5 in about 20 mins 31. I paced myself wrong though as I had a lot left in the tank and managed a huge sprint finish at the end. The finishing line was in a different place to the previous races I have done at Regent's park though. It came round the corner out of complete suprise so I didn't start my sprint towards the finish as quickly as I could have. Garmin was also nackered as I didn't turn it on early enough before the gun. Amateur! Placed 31 out of 367 runners.

Realistic target time based on 3 days training in the week beforehand and a good night's sleep the night before should be 41 mins 30.

HermanBloom Interesting course around the park. Pretty decent staging area and lots of support at the start/finish area. Flat course, leading to good times (as can be seen by the race results from Fetchies). Only criticism I have was that you get a drink at the end but after that the small amount of water they provided vainshed quickly. But seems harsh to over-emphasise that when the rest of the event was run really well. 

If you are looking for an end of year race to target a 10k PB, then this seems pretty much perfect.
