Maidenhead half marathon
Definitely pleased with this, things are looking on track. PB by 3:30.
Started nice & easy at around marathon pace, good thing I wanted to as well as there were bottlenecks ahoy. Enjoyed the steady middle section a lot with literally hundreds of people to overtake. Then a slight tough patch around mile 10 (although mainly due to small hills and water station). Felt really good winding it up though, dropped the guy who was tailing me about a mile out and then chased down a few more.
Great cheerleading today.
Splits of 6:32, 28, 22, 21, 20, 17, 21, 21, 22, 28, 31, 15, 02 plus 0:16.
30th on chip time, 31st on gun.
