No don't Richard, it makes me feel like I'm getting close to the elite as I am only a minute off your profile 5k

Well done Rich!! I thought 17 was probably a bit of a ridiculous expectation - maybe it made you run a bit faster though!

We were with you in spirit!

Beasty, I felt sorry for the woman a while afterwards... but at the time I was absolutely fuming

It keeps me awake at night Richard :P Please do something about it, for my sanity

Good report Rich, I am doing the Northern 6 stages this weekend in Hartlepool.

aye Sweaty B... indeed, the fastest time of the day was 17:16, and that's not for off as quick as you're going to see anywhere in the UK. Some very speedy men!

Best of luck for your team Dan - is your lot hoping to get through to the nationals?

Thanks as always for the kind words people... starting to make me wonder about Castle Combe now - I need to maintain the same pace for 4.2k longer... which seems impossible, but castle combe will be flat as a pancake. Speedwork tomorrow!
