I saw the XC results yesterday and thought that looked like a great run from you. Think I'd be struggling to push the scoring ten so close at the moment!
Some positives from the Great Eastern Run Half Marathon: I managed to finish first V45, and I like to think I helped MsPub to a stunning pb. She caught me at 10 miles and went on to win the women's race in 1:14:07, over a minute off her previous best. Finish time for me 1:14:28, a bit down on what I was hoping for but the miserable conditions didn't do much for the mojo. Hopefully will be a lot more fired up for the target marathon.
@Brum - A similar mental issue I have is the internal jukebox getting stuck on the wrong song. The less familiar the tune, the shorter the loop I have to play with. I ran an entire 10k in Victoria Park many years ago with just the chorus of Kajagoogoo's Too Shy on constant loop. Aaargh!

Hungover running is brutal.
Nice work in the x country @rhb. I finished in a similar position, 63rd, but fewer runners and just outside the scoring 10. We were second overall behind Hercules Wimbledon who are gunning to take us down this year.
The race itself was on a rock hard Richmond Park. Many people just wore racing flats. I felt good until about 4.5 miles when my stomach got really tight and sore.
Good luck to any half marathoners out there today @PhilPub
