I'm really pleased with that race.  The weather was freezing (it had snowed during the night) and I thought the course was closer to a cross country race than a road race (muddy farmers tracks and across fields) but I went out at a moderate pace and keeped the work race high.

I though I was on for a reasonable time (target was 44mins) but at 39 mins I realised I was getting close to home and at 40mins & a bit I passed the 200m marker.

 I wouldn't have thought the course was fast but I can't be anything other than elated at taking 7minutes  (yes - SEVEN MINUTES) off my PB.
