I realise I haven't been on very much over the last month, but I still feel you all deserve a BIG thank you... you may not have thought but being on here really motivated me, and hearing your stories and your advice helped too to get me through training when I felt like I needed more hours in the days! ANYHOO, my deadline is on wednesday for all my work so I should be back soon for some banter... in the mean time though I just thought I'd let you know how things went at the ol' sheffield half.
Well... the weather couldn't of been better, twas cool, but not cold, couldy, no wind and spitting ever so slightly... the course itself was alright, and I didn't die at any point. In fact I felt really good the whole way round, feel fine now bar a sore toe nail (note to self for next time, cut toe nails!!!)... and finished in 1:52:00!!! Bloody amazing considering I was aiming for 2 hours! I got to the half way mark and it'd taken me an hour to get there... so I pulled off a good negative split heh, although that was a teeny bit tougher than I thought it was gunna be cuz I thought the second half was like downhill... and it wasn't really... yeah... it was goooooooooooooood. And I have a medal and stuff so YAY! I'd say that's a PB but I've never done a half before... but now the bar is set for the Malvern Half in June... eeek!
So again, thank you guys and I'll be back on Thursday
Rich, didn't you do a half recently?
