A gloriously sunny day and a new pb for me (both on the Ashton Court route and as any 5km that I’ve run). At the start of the year I was hoping to get under 25 minutes and now I’m under 24. All of the training for the Bristol half marathon must be paying off. I also logged the Gromit at Ashton Court and the one at Riverside garden centre.

I was 62nd out of 239, 5th lady and 3rd in my age group. I also achieved an age grading of 62.69% which is the first time I’ve been over 62% (and no, I don’t understand what that is, but the higher it is then better). It also makes the third race in a row that I have been under 25 minutes (another goal for the year achieved).
