Post race rest

Today I am basking in the glory of yesterday's 8k in Windsor. It was such a straightforward experience, living as we do just 15 minutes from the race venue. They were all geared up to cope with the bigger crowds running today's half, so everything ran smoothly on the day.  S and I got there just before 11:30, sat sipping a little water and then we were off (well I was off, S was watching/holding bags). Uphill to start, I surprised myself by passing a lot of people who weren't coping so well with that. The end was in reverse, so tired though I was, the downhill stretch to the line was joyous and my chip time was 55:42. That my friends is a pb as it is my first ever 8k.
