Notes
This was shitty. I haven't felt great this week and it has been a tough week of training but I really think this was a bad race. I hadn't run poorly in England until today but I guess I was bound to have one eventually. Next couple of weeks are going to be lower mileage so hopefully I feel better and can go from the 2nd half of march into the end of my time here running well and ready to go. I was absolutely humiliated by Nick Earl who won the race in a near record time of 15:31. I was with him through 1200 meters or so which was probably a big mistake. Next time I run one of these park run things I am going to have to go out there and run my own race because I could tell I was overrunning early on.
One final note, it was well frustrating having to deal with all the fucking joggers. I was lapping people for the entirety of my final lap of the park (3 lap course) which was irritating. Either way, next time I will do better. I believe my next race is going to be a 1500 on Wednesday the 13th when we have our derby day against University of Essex. Not sure I am in any sort of 1500 form but things can definitely come together for me during a down week
