There is no way I could have done a 10k race this morning. I haven't made it out for a leg loosener yet.
I thought it was a great course, had initially been thinking 15s but switched to 12s after the warm up showed there was a lot of runnable grass rather than a pure mudbath.
There was claggy mud all over the place and the final hill with the tussocks was a lot more runnable than i thought it was going to be when warming up. I found the medium lap the toughest then found myself slowly working my way through to finish just inside the top 300. Had a bit of a sprint at the end to try and catch my clubmate and stay ahead of a couple of others.
The new spikes i bought on Friday evening are considerably less shiny now.
