Popping Sands 5k

Great event which can bring together some quick runners on it's day.

Not many to see today. Steady start again and hit the sand in 4th position behind a couple of 17 year old's and a Scottish runner from Motherwell Ac.

Got to.the front on the beach and started opening a gap. On the tarmac straight through lap 2 I though id done enough to make things comfortable but the 49 year old Scottish runner had a good turn of speed and pulled away. RACE was on. I caught him towards the last 1.5k on to the beach and pulled away again winning by 25 seconds. Amazingly a pb which I'd didn't think was there. Think the hard  sand helped. 17.28.
