Overtaking backmarkers

Distance: 3 miles
Time: 28m33s

Mile 1 - 8m50s
Mile 2 - 9m50s
Mile 3 - 9m53s


Set off a bit too quickly again today. I need to learn to take it steady on lap one I think.

The closing stage of lap two was a bit frustrating, as there was a slow pedestrian walking along the pavement. There wasn't enough room to overtake them on the road before the parked cars, nor really enough gap to have cut across in front of them anyway as I was just about to turn left up a footpath. So since there were no blue flags about to warn them to give me room to pass, I had to stop to a dead slow walking pace behind them, until I could head off again.

Still, I'm back up to three miles on a Sunday. I need to put together my structured plan ready for next month when the miles start to ramp up.

Running 13.1 miles in memory of Carl

I ran the Silverstone Half Marathon on 15th March 2009. I managed the 13.1 mile course in 2 hours and 4 minutes. Not a bad effort for my first Half Marathon! I returned in 2010 to run it in 1 hour 54 minutes, and plan to do it again in 2011. I decided to run this in aid of The PSC Trust and PSC Support in memory of my brother Carl, who died from liver failure in November 1997. If you'd like to sponsor me for this - please email me at pscrun@ulen.me.uk PSC Trust
