I found this race a struggle. I wasn't confidant going into the race following my patchy training. The weather was good at the start of the race as it was slightly overcast though half way through the sun emerged and it was quite warm.
The car park had changed for this 2nd running of the Tarpley 10 to the Beyton School instead of the pumpkin field. There were a good number of late entries to bolster the total entry. There were 115 finishers today compared to 124 so the overall entry was slightly down.
My mile splits were as follows
1 7.18
2 7.45
3. 7.56
4. 7.54
5. 7.48
6. 7.43
7. 8.06
8. 7.59
9. 8.36
10. 7.51
I failed to beat my time from last year which was 1 .18. 25 in the main to some slow miles from 7 miles onwards. It is time to get some more consistent training in!
When I get the chance I read your blog.
ReplyDeleteAny reason for the slow 9th mile?
Shame they can't move the date of the Tarpley race to say this weekend (1st October) as it clashes with the Ipswich Duathlon...judging by your pictures looks like a great event!
