Brighton Beacon Half Marathon

First half marathon of the year started with a PB by over 2 minutes with a time of 1.16.01 and 18th place.
Been doing a lot of base work since Christmas as part of my Ironman training plan, so wasn't sure how this race would go.
Pleasantly surprised to be able to keep a sub 6 min mile pace up given that I haven't done a lot of high intensity stuff. Maybe the core training is helping?
Filthy weather with continuous rain and plenty of wind, but it didn't seem too bad once racing.
Quickly got cold at the finish and had to make a quick run for the car before hypothermia set in.
