After last weeks trials and tribulations I made it on to the start line this morning.
Started in the good for age section which gave me a decently clear run from the off. Settled into a conservative pace around 6.20 ish.
Caught Mike K at something like 10 miles. Patted him on the back, but he seemed to be in a world of his own. I think he thought I was just clumsily trying to overtake.
Hit halfway in 1.23 and saw Jen shortly after.
Came out of docklands and felt smug watching the other runners just going in.
Got a good shout from Chris and Lisa and Tower Hill then just thinking about getting the last 4 miles over and done with.
Upped my pace at the end to make sure I came in under 2.47.
Final time 2.46.43. Pretty satisfied with my pacing and not too exhausted at the end.
Should be OK to get back into training again this week.
Time to focus on the bike now.
