Just got back from the weekend off great racing. Had a great time and done very well. Saturday I came 9th over all and second vet40 took silver in Welsh and uk trail champs. 1:26. Sunday was hard but still surprised my self, came 4th over all and 1st vet40. 2:18. 2nd over all for the weekend and 1st vet.
Well done lads on the 10k
Steve well done mate
My legs are now shot so will cach you all some time in the week. Would definitely recommend this race. If your mad enough.
No clues on the websites - so I phoned Ann Crimmings - It's a run around Aberdare Park, at 12 noon (children's race earlier at 11am) - cost £5 on the day. I've put these details on my website.
Was a good training session last night, i just about managed to hold on this time for the 4 laps at just under 7 minute/mile pace. Unlike the sub 6 minute pace of the week before lol.
Well done for the weekend Chris, sounds like you run a great race.
I am picking up the training a bit now. Ive got 2 weeks of florida to contend with (gonna put some weight on there lol) and then when i get back i can carry on with some serious training and hopefully do some races.
Now i have eased the hamstring probelm a fair bit i have been able to do up to 9 mile runs with no problems so far. So fingers crossed nothing else brakes...
I should be there thurs - spoke to the organisers of the Aberdare 5m to check/confirm that they will email me the results. I'm driving up, Ray said he's going (navigating) aswell - I believe Jerome and Kieran are also going - should have room for one more.
Good luck tomorrow Mark. My legs are OK thanks still feel a bit tired although done 10 miles tonight and feel OK for it at the moment, Now I've dried off that is.
FM are you running any more before the race?
Mark, if you see Mark Dunscombe,Sarn Helen runner,tomorrow tell him I was asking what happened to him last weekend?

Well done guys - second place in the team race (Swansea was first) in the Llanelli 10k today -no prizes though - I hung around for the presentations.

Got my PB - under 47 mins and the Captain had a blinder. Conditions were not good in the wind particularly towards the end.
