Notes

Brilliant run, felt comfortably hard but just kept getting faster - was aiming (a little optimistically, I thought) to run at about 6:30 pace if possible, but started below that and the average pace kept coming down.

Not bad given that I was wearing normal training shoes, I was just going up and down a one mile stretch (and hence had to turn around 6 times) and that there was a gusty wind. The last mile and a half was quite hard, but at no point was I feeling desperate, and here was no sprint finish, just kept it even.

Really pleased with this - I've never run under 39 for 10K in a race!
