I ran the Severn Bridge Half as well 5awr :) felt really weird walking over the bridge but I thought it was a great course.
I've got a terrible habit of going off too fast in races but nailed it yesterday even if I do say so myself :D
I've got pb's of 5k 19:36, 10k 39:58 and my previous best 1/2 was 1:29:49 so when I got to 10k in 40:20 I thought I was going to blow up big time :D
But I felt great all the way and finished in 1:27:13, should have gone quicker but when I was running 6:12 m/miles at mile 8 and 9 I started panicking and slowed myself down :D
Really hope it becomes a permanent feature as I thought it was a great race :)

@5awyr
Anyone else run the Severn Bridge half this morning?
I went off far too fast (first 3 miles were a big 5k PR, the stupidity) which I thought I'd stopped doing, and faded big time. Still good fun though, and you get to run on a closed motorway bridge. Would recommend.
