Race Report: Arley Hall 10k 29/06/2014

by Sandbach Striders on Tuesday 1st July 2014
I did the Arley Hall 10k this morning.

The race was delayed by fifteen minutes to allow competitors to use the toilets, almost 500 runners plus all the spectators and only 6 portaloos.



The route was almost entirely on road with only 200m on good track by the start and finish arch. This would be a good PB course if you were fit, (which I'm not), as all the roads were closed to traffic and it was quite flat.

This was a nice run, a single anti-clockwise loop through quiet country lanes with a drinks station at 5k. The race was well marshalled with lots of parking very close to the start and it was also chip timed.

I finished in 55:02, first and only Strider home.

(Unfortunately I donated blood a couple of days ago, so felt wiped out with nothing in my legs... hey ho)
