Chernobyl

My splits were 8:19, 9:35, 8:23, 10:05, 8:29, 8:32, 1:38, the 1:38 being for the last 350 yards, or whatever the extra over 6 miles that 10k comes to. Only high point was overtaking the turnip wagon on a narrow track on the banks of the River Ribble (try saying that Chinese style, where you swop the "r"s for "l"s and vice versa). Low points were miles 2 and 4 which involved unplanned stops. Suffice to say, Matt whupped me once again.

Over to you Matt.

PS to SN, the obvious thing is that you must only do "enter on the day" races, and try not to fall ill or fall over between picking up your number and toeing the line.
