Road Running race (Valentines Randburg 10) 44:11 [5] 10.0 km (4:25 / km)
shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 2007
1900 - Big turnout (maybe 2 - 3000 runners?). No rain for a change. I had a steady start with heavy legs (looking forward to tomorrows rest day). Paced myself at 4:30s and then picked up the pace from 6k. Did a 4:00 and then ran the big hill to 8k in about 4:40 or so. Just wasn't able to pick up the pace enough to get under 44m. I'm sure this is a PB for me on this race. The bigger achievement however was finally beating Sonja Laxton for the first time ever... finally!
