Hello
I had a great day though not sure why they call it a 10k FUN run - its hard work! I ran all the way non stop which was my aim. 65th out of 149 runners so in the top half and 2nd out of 6 in my age group. Was very surprised at that. It took me 65mins to complete. We were lucky with the weather as it was a perfect day. All round a great experience for me
