Cambridge Half-Marathon - pretty pleased with run (24th) - my first race in 14 months and first on the roads for nearly 2 years. Took it steady n felt really comfy through to 8. Began to struggle, particularly after 10. Last 3 miles were painful. Decent course - great atmosphere n location, albeit rather twisty n turny. Mile splits: 6.00, 5.44, 5.55, 5.56, 5.56 (29.34), 5.55, 6.05, 5.51, 6.05, 6.06 (59.39), 6.16, 6.21, 6.12.
