BlueWombat my half PB is surely due a dust-off? It's been sitting there too long, and has gone soft.

Sorry folks, it has stayed soft. Don't know why I can't hack this distance. I should do better, I know, but it's a disappointing time. At least I managed to dip under 1:40

Chaz66 fantastic race, well organised - best bit was the beer at the half way point - the secret to getting PBs has been discovered!

Hash I really can't belive that was a PB - looks like a week of lying around drinking beer on a Greek sunbed is what they mean by

MrMarcus Training in recent weeks has gone really well so i will be looking at a PB for this one. Hopefully by a couple of minutes.....very happy with that run no pb but good solid effort, even with a stiff headwind 2nd half of lap.

Santa Badgey Won't be a PB; pacing Tulla  for debut half- marathon. Result: got Tulla round, though she had a bit of a leg wobble at 11 miles; she walked for a little then got running again and put in a sprint finish at the end (don't know where *that* came from). Was very impressed by the race all round and will be back next year to run it harder!

Tiny Haystacks First half-marathon for me.

All going well until miles 10/11 when legs very nearly gave way, so missed the 2 hours 20 I was hoping for; got round somehow, but the last bit was slow. Thanks to Badger for pacing me round.

TZ What a great day! Pleased to whoop 90secs off my PB :-)  Would have been a better result had I not passed through: 5mi @ 30:05 (6sec slower than 5mi PB), 7mi @ 42:31 (4:02 quicker than 7mi PB), 10mi @ 61:07 (2:36  quicker than 10mi PB). The last three miles were then quite painful!!! Best of all, there's a bunch of new PBs out there, waiting for a future race day! Happy TZ...
