After a few cups of tea at a friend's house we walked down to the start. Actually we ran to the start because it was so cold and one too many cups of tea meant we were a little late! Our timing proved impeccable as we met the others and then we were off.
It was such a pleasure to be doing a shorter distance and despite not much training this week I felt really good. The course was quite hilly but the time flew past. We chatted for the first few kilometres and then spread out as we hit our natural strides. I was delighted to finish in 51 minutes which is an improvement on previous 10k times. The others also clocked great times and so it proved to be a big confidence boost to us all.
A big thanks to driver Lindsay and tea maker Anna, as well as to Claire, for fully supporting the brand. Ladies you looked great in your Thoosa gear!
