Siuberto Socarras ran the Rotary Run Florida 10k and finished this distance in the time of 1:00:05. This was a huge personal record by 8 minutes!
First PR in a 10k. It gives me hope to keep training to try to sub 2:14 in about 9 weeks. My last HM was 2:20 last month.
Alistair Mitchell ran the Valencia Marathon and finished with a time of 3:33:00. This was a new personal record by 6 minutes!
Valencia is an amazing race and the elite times were spectacular 2h01:58!!! My race was a PB but not as good as I had hope with cramp in my hamstring causing me to slow a lot at 33k. I nursed it and finished fairly well back on pace. I think I didn’t drink enough water (risk of needing a ‘break’ but I think I paid for that). Overall the Garmin shows 3h29.41 and race chip showed 3:33 flat. But what an amazing course, support and organisation. Also Valencia is such a great city in December. This should be a top destination and if Kipchoge ran here I think he would run crazy fast. Thanks to the coaches!
Amy Comander ran the Frosty Half Marathon and finished this race in the time of 2:08:00.
It was my birthday!
