We didn't have the best route choice but our running and prior organisation got us through - just by 90 seconds.

Very lucky to go back to the World Champs to defend out title in September.

Run race (Six Foot Track Marathon) 4:27:00 [5]
shoes: Brooks Trance 6

Started out feeling good and was in the lead for first 10km. Ran with Jo Blake and Tony Fattorini (winner) for a while but backed off a little. Arrived to Cox's River about 15km about 1 minutes behind lead group but achilles were getting really sore and could not stretch out up the hills. Got passed by the top ten finishers 1 by 1 up the hill as i struggled to even walk. After the top 20 or so passed gave up completely to save myself for the City Chase next weekend.

Very disappointed to have to pull out after training hard all summer and especially coz I was feeling pretty good. At least there is City Chase to look forward to in a few days.
