15 seconds!

A bag of mini eggs for the winner - what greater incentive could there be going into today's 5k at Leverhulme Park. Not for the overall winner of course but the winner of the more important sub race between myself and the man I have only ever beaten once in 7 years of racing against him. That was a 5k last year when I ran 27;00 and he 31;19.
The lure of chocolate obviously increased his motivation and he finished today's race in 27;01 - a whole 15 seconds ahead of me. All we need to do now is dangle the same carrot ( chocolate of course) when he runs next year's Amble!
Well done EtU a superb race in glorious conditions with lots of fellow RMI Harriers whose names I won't mention coz they all finished ahead of me!
Until the next time...
