Melanie Ford ran the RR10 5 mile and finished this race in the time of 37:14.
This race was actually one of series of 7 trail races held over the summer, number 5. They are roughly 5 miles. This one is my least favourite as flat, running round field edges and not interesting. However I won my age group. Mainly because those faster than me didn’t turn up! Would have liked my pace not to have dropped off. As the overall position is the best 5 of 7 races, and I have now run 5, there is no one who can catch me to be overall winner in my age group (65-69). (I know this is down as a tune up race but all the races count equally and it was the only way to get a programme to fit with a summer series). So will see what the final 2 races bring in the series.
