I was very pleased with my performance yesterday, especially given that I have some kind of a cold, although the event was marred by the death of one runner who collapsed shortly before the end. Here are my statistics:net time: 1:46:35
10 km time: 50:12
overall position: 4408
position (age group) 442
5:03 per km
average speed: 11.88 km/h
So I achieved my goal of 1:47. A bit of stiffness this morning, but nothing too dramatic. More results here.
and here is the medal!

Good job!! The modest Buddhist Englishman in you neglected to mention that you finished in the top third! Though I doubt anyone is prouder than the guy in the over-80 age group who finished last.
ReplyDeleteYes this is true, and I guess it means that if there had been just three runners I would have won!
ReplyDelete... as long as the other two didn't happen to hail from Kenya :-)
ReplyDeleteSo schnell schaff ich's nicht. Und dann bin ich wohl noch um ein Vielfaches langsamer als dein Vater.
