First competitive event post entry to the Iron Man

Sunday 12th December, Andy Reading 10km in Bicester, road race, flat
course, time: 38:36 minutes, position 51st.

Very happy with my time for this event, I approached this race with
aggression and speed, the use of self talk throughout the race help me
to maintain focus. As a result I managed to run faster than my
previous 10k time by approx of 1minute 30sec.

Although I enjoy the physical demands of running the shorter
distances, over the next 6weeks my focus will lie on increasing the
mileage that I'm doing in preparation for the 50miles from Oxford to
Henley.
