Fifth place, smashing result, well done! And very close to a podium finish as well (there's always next year, of course)
ReplyDeleteThanks Thomas. I was indeed close to an elusive podium finish - I was within 50m's of catching 3rd and 4th place runners with 7 miles to go, but then cramp struck and I had to slow, so they opened up a 4 minute gap.
DeleteWell done Robert, great result with not the most ideal of build ups. Looks like a really nice race, will need to give it a go one year.
ReplyDeleteWell done, great result. There's a podium finish in your future, no doubt! x
ReplyDeleteThanks. I'm a podium finish is within reach, I just need to find a small enough to make it happen!
DeleteMy youngest daughter (now aged 10) is far more competitive than I, on more than one occasion she's asked me why I bother entering races when know that I'm not going to win... so I go over the script that I run the races because I enjoy them and compete against myself - which is true but she just doesn't buy it ;-D
Haha! When she says that to you again, challenge her to a race, then beat her, and make a big deal of your victory...!! (Are parents allowed to do that?)
DeleteLOL. I don't think that would work, what if she beat me?
DeleteCongrats on an excellent race Robert - looking forward to reading your blog on it. Speaking of which, have really enjoyed your detailed analysis and your great progress too. What's next on the calendar?
ReplyDeleteI can't admit to an "excellent" race, perhaps a "good in the circumstances" race as report will detail. I am still 40 mins adrift of your own RAW winning time back in 2012, just goes to show just how an awesome a race you had, will need to emulate one day :-)
DeleteWould love to head back and have another shot at it - especially with the shorter finish at the stadium and no hilly and muddy detour at 27 miles! The question, as ever, is how to turn "good" into "excellent" on the day. Keep working at it - it's worth it in the end!
DeleteIt was fun finishing at the Track, first time I've raced on a track since I was 14! There is still the detour before Stair which adds a big climb that wasn't there when I first ran the race in 2010.
DeleteRunning the perfect race is difficult to do. I came pretty close to it with the Fling and WHWR this year. I'm still learning and experimenting with training, taper and racing, but also just throwing the dice enough by running regular races has to up the chances of running that perfect race. What I am pleased with is that even when my body isn't in the right place on race day I'm still able to put in a pretty decent performances.
Very well done, despite the recent muscle injury. You have certainly made a major gains across the board this year. and built a very solid foundation for next year
