Notes & Comments

Cardiff Half Marathon: Fantastic race, perfect weather conditions, mega club turnout, and brilliant support from the sidelines. Maintained a consistent pace, trying to keep Alan in my sights, only dipping a little from mile 9 to 12 due to burning sensation to ball of left foot, though that subsided in last mile so didn't hinder me greatly. Knocked over 2 mins off my pb and last year's time, but garmin measured course at 12.99 miles so short. Finished 364th overall and 9th in my age category...may make the geriatric olympics yet!
Organisers have since admitted race was short by 193m (211 yards) due to obstruction on route through Penarth marina. Based on my overall race pace and the WAVA value I had for 12.98 miles (the officially recorded distance run) my time over the 13.1 miles would be adjusted to 1.26.26, still a massive pb.
6.37, 6.27, 6.32, 6.34, 6.31, 6.32, 6.34, 6.38, 6.36, 6.41, 6.45, 6.45, 6.34
