...Cripes, so much for all the sandbagging. I've just run a 5k road PB! (I think.) 16:04 by my watch which would be a 2 second PB, so just awaiting official results. The wind was weird, could feel it was windy but never really felt it was slowing me down. Not sure about position in the race, 10-15 maybe, but second scorer for the club which I'm also pleased with. The winner was sub-15.
I've run sub-16 on the track a few times but I've got proper mojo on now to try and do it in a road race. Maybe having a couple of teeth out the week before and getting spaced out on cocodamol is the way to deal with the pain of a 5k...
