Finished the Graham Clark 3.9 mile
That was another tough race. Who'd have thought a race track would be so hilly?
I didn't get the pace I was wanting, 10 minutes for the first lap, but slipped to about 11 minutes for the other two. Yet again I forgot to stop my watch as I crossed the line. Four races I've done now and I've only remembered to stop my watch on the first one. Just so glad to get over the finish line I'm not thinking about it. When I did eventually stop it it read 32:26. I'll be very happy if my time is under the 32 minutes. I'll find out tomorrow, hopefully, when the race results are published. Apparently there was a big clock next to the finish line, but I didn't even notice it. I saw Mel as I crossed and heard her congratulations, always good to hear after a race, and staggered away.
One good thing about the hills on Knockhill is that you get to run down some of them. The steep one after the first bend was fun, especially on the last lap. I really just let myself go and sprinted down it.
For the first lap I'd been able to keep pace with Shiona, but slipped a little. I could see her gradually get further and further ahead of me. On the last lap, going round the tri-oval part of the track, we could see each other as the track turned back sharply, and up an steep hill. She looked so far ahead of me. Yet I was only about 40 seconds behind her crossing the finish line. Managed to find a spurt of energy for the last twenty-thirty meters.
Jenni, who had been concerned that she hadn't done enough running the last couple of week while she was away on holiday, left us behind easily.
My blood sugar level was gone by the end, my hands shaking visibly, slightly dizzy and a bit of a shiver setting in once I'd sat down. Changed into a warm top and tucked into Mel's amazing gluten free carrot cake soon sorted that out.
