A year or so back a few of us made the trip round the M25 for a Blackheath and Bromley open. The weather was crazy with a big rainstorm, but most of us posted good times – nothing to lose?
So we decided to return this year, in the end only Jack and I could make it. Quite a few people in this race but I’d failed to do any homework, so didn’t know what the competition would be like.
In the event it was a good, close race, I was very happy with my back straight, felt smooth and ran most people down. Holding on for the finish wasn’t easy, but a win is a win and a time of 61.78, my best since 2021 / catching Covid.
Feeling positive, but a way to go yet for sub-60 running.
