1st. 1.17.34
Actually pretty happy with the Xmas break with steady miles every week and keeping the sessions going in Aberaeron. Having trouble with pain under the right knee cap and had a cold all week it wasn't a record breaking day.
Not a large field of quality so decided to take it steady before pushing to the end, keeping an eye on a good week of training.
Gun set off it was freezing and even had to put the trusted blue t-shirt on, bitterly cold wind going out but behind us on the return.
Was in 4th place after 1st mile, just hiding the same pace I was was 3rd after 3 miles. Passing ken there was a Neath Runner ahead who fancied his chances as it took me up until mile 7-8 before I caught him and went straight past. On the railway track I upped the pace and put in 3 miles off effort to win by nearly 2 minutes.
Solid run where I never touched the red with the steady increase in pace. Tough course with the hills on the out leg always a surprise and a pan flat finish with one incline towards the end always a testing day.
