10km Personal best
Did the Farndon 10km race this afternoon with my wife and a mate of mine. We all got PB’S on an undulating route which was very pleasing indeed. I had no race plan and was even more chuffed for this reason. I kind of secretly hoped i would get close to my 48:20 which i got just over a year ago. Here i managed a 46:55 which blew that out of the water. One of the best things about this race was the comfortable feeling i had all the way round and at the 4 mile point i just accelerated and passed lots of club runners that looked a lot taller and thinner than me. Shallow i know but there you go.

Good Work! That’s an awesome time
Tom
Congratulations to you all!
Well done on the PB – Knocking 1 min 25 off a 10k time is no mean feat!
Excellent time – well done!
Brilliant
The pleasure is not shallow, it should be enjoyed and remembered if you are ever overtaken by shorter fatter runners
For some reason it makes me happy to think that you got your pb in Farndon, as I lived there when I was young
Well done Phil. Show them tall skinny guys how its done!
Great job on the PB, definitely makes the race even more enjoyable. I just stumbled on your blog but definitely going to come back; I’ve added you to my blogroll!
Many thanks for the kind words and putting up with my poor English.
