Wilmslow Half Marathon 2008
30/03/08 19:04
Today was the day... conditions were perfect, it's a
shame I wasn't! I went to a friends 30th Birthday
party on Friday night and spent all of yesterday with
a HUGE hangover. Still didn't feel good when lining
up for the race this morning. Having said that... I
was only 2mins slower than my PB which I ran earlier
in the month at Liverpool. I'm convinced I would have
hit another PB if I had prepared properly.
It was a nice race to run, very rural... lot's of winding country lanes, the race itself was a little congested to start with, Wilmslow is more popular than I had expected, it took about 2mins or so just to reach the start line from the gun. I think I'd like to enter this race again next year and would fully recommend it to anyone.
Race time: 1:41:36
Gun Time: 1:44:00 approx

Just spent a fantastic weekend in the Lakes with the family,
swimming, cycling and building snowmen. After
eating all that easter chocolate today's run was
as expected... it felt heavy, I've got a bit of
a cough which I hope I can shake off before this
weekends half marathon at Wilmslow.
Today's run: 5.87miles (47:30)

I've been awake all night with a face the size of a
football, luckily the swelling had gone down in the
morning but I've just been diagnosed with having an
abscess due to a dodgy wisdom tooth. I'm now on a
course of antibiotics and have been advised not to
run.... gutted
I've only got about 3 weeks to go for the Wilmslow Half Marathon, this is gonna be interesting.
