I managed to find a shady spot to wait...had a quick chat to Nick B, Jim W and Geoff B before the start, with Geoff B ensuring we were just behind the elite athletes...
it was quite warm as predicted...I made a steady start with a goal of sub 30 in mind...grabbed a drink not long after halfway - took a small sip and poured the rest over myself!
this was the third time I'd run this event and the course was different each time (I ran it in 2006 & 2008 when it was 6k)...just scraped in under 30 by my watch...
