Running intervals 1:04:30 8.8 mi (7:20 / mi) shoes: Asics Gel-DS Racer VII
Emma was running Dronfield 10k but I forgot to enter and the race was full. So I gave myself a four or five minute head start and ran the two lap course backwards, doing 15 * 90/30 after a ten minute warm up. Tried to beat the leaders to the finish and just about managed it. Darren Newbould won in just under 34 with Adam Dyson second about 30 sec behind. Good to see Adam running again.
Then ran another lap of the course backwards with Mike and Gill Jubb to cheer in Emma. Gill had an hour to run after the race as marathon training, and that was after an hour running before the race and the race!
