Telford parkrun (#62) - 58th, 24:06
Pacing Dad.
No mental block from the 10k which was good.
Amazing how much easier a pace that can sometimes feel tough in training feels easy when there's a race going on.
110th race of 2013, one to go...

Running race 19:34 [5] 3.4 mi (5:45 / mi)
Chester "Round the Walls" Race, 7th - 19:xx
Except due to Ice, it wasn't round the walls, it was once round the racecourse, turn round, go back to the start, x2. Boring. Happy birthday to me.
Set off feeling very easy over frozen ground, feeling great, moved up to 3rd after a mile. Turned, into mud and uneven ground, it started to hurt and I lost 2 places quickly, then a third, and a fourth. Stayed in 7th from 2 miles to the finish. Dug in hard but it was a strange race as the first mile was 5:15 and the rest was at 5:5x pace. Did not enjoy slogging in out XC style. Ah well.

Running 27:05 [4] 4.0 mi (6:46 / mi) +50m 6:31 / mi
Continuing the short sharp run theme with 4 miles down round Coedpoeth from Minera and back up, solid 6:45 pace despite hills and fierce wind. Job done.

Running 29:40 [4] 4.0 mi (7:25 / mi) +100m 6:53 / mi
Another lovely run, along Weston super mare prom and then up through the woods to the top of Weston Hill and back down. Toughish climb but fairly steady with nothing too steep. Just missed the rain.

Running 38:00 [4] 5.5 mi (6:55 / mi)
Round Cardiff Bute Dock, Cardiff Bay over Cardiff Barrage and back.
Lovely run. Not sure why but took over a mile to get going but at the same effort soon found myself running fairly fast. Very windy but always seemed to be across my path.
Funny running over the barrage and setting off the 5mph speed warning signs!
