Running race 5:17:29 [3] 26.0 km (12:13 / km) +750m 10:40 / km
Well - friday went well - throat fine, looking good for the weekend...then in the evening I had some asthma troubles and by Saturday morning it was a full on cold!
So we set off and tried not to overly push it - 1st 4 controls went reasonably then it all fell apart - pretty much walked the rest - felt worse and worse but was determined to finish - 5:17:29 was a fairly dissapointing time, by number 4 we were looking at 4:20/4:30ish but 4-5 and 5-6 were horrifically slow - lost at least 20mins 5-6...then it was just a crawl to the finish!
