Trafford 10k

13th March 2011

Like Louise and Tom we were up against it with the quality and depth of the Trafford 10k field.  With practically the top 50 under 34 minutes and a crowded fast start there was little chance to run your own race, it was a sprint from the gun.  Jim and I tried to hang onto the pace but ended up fighting a losing battle with the leading ladies into the last 3km.  The first V40 ran 30:17.  Flat and traffic free, Trafford is probably the fastest 10k in the area with far greater depth than GMR.  And as Matt and Alan showed you really should PB.
