Mid Week League - Trent Park
15/7/2009 - 9Km
The last in the series of the races and this time both divisions run together hence the name, Mob Match. Hosted by Trent Park we have home turf advantage.
Due to a couple of issues I had to walk to the club and arrived with only 10mins to the start so frantically got changed and ran to the start.
Loads of people. Worked my way to the middle of the pack and waited for the off. Started well but by 1Km I was 30 seconds under my 5km time, by 2km was now 60 seconds under. I was running to fast. My pace and walk to the club had taken it's toll by the 3Km mark so I took a walking break to recover and try and get the correct pace. Didn't work.
At the start of the second lap I needed a drink but there was no water station. Plodded on taking walking breaks when I needed.
Very poor performance in all and finished in a time of 49:31.
