A cold winters morning.

January 1st
Park Run Glasgow - 5k cc

Ran from my house to pollock park giving me a 7 mile warm up and arriving 10 minutes before the start, due to ice still on parts of the course the run was changed from road to grass. So after a quick change of footwear i went to the start, we were informed at the start that the loop we were doing was 1k long so this meant 5 laps with 10 hills.
The course was very heavy underfoot and the course with 2 hills and muddy made the race alot harder than i expected , but after 5 laps and being lapped by 3 runners i really enjoyed my first run and race of 2011.
After a quick change of top,socks and shoes i set of for the 7 mile warm down and a bit of a struggle running the uphill section in the clyde tunnel i managed to get home at 11.10am with 17 miles run and a good start to 2011.
