first km was my fastest ever with 7:39, was fairly easy untill 2.5km which is where most of my runs stop.... the nextkm was REALLY hard, legs were like cement couldent breathe. up hill section from 3.5 - 4km then i realised there was only 500 metres left and i started running (sloooowly) again untill i saw it was only about 200 metres to go and i though screw jogging and i legged it up the last bit (it was actually really cool because all the 7km runners started yelling for me and calling out my bib number which apparently they hadnt been doing before ) and i finished with around 38 minutes (my GPS was a little lagging official times dont come out for a week or so) IM SO HAPPY. and i am SO racing again. it may sound stupid but i just wanted to thank everyone on here, because you all inspire and motivate me SO much
just found out my exact time was 37:45 and i finished 59th out of 125 : D
