OK Joe ... great Race report

Carol - one thing I learnt this week is that anti inflamtories are your friend - I am actually feeling better - tho not ready to run - I wonder had I taken something for 5 days when I forst had the injury if I would be OK by now

I`d follow the if ... it hurts don`t do it rule for a couple of weeks - not sure where your long run was at but you may still be able make Nov if you are able to cycle and use a x trainer

Ran the half marathon in Toronto yesterday, and had a good race.
I started conservatively and spoke to the 2hr pace bunny at 9kms, he said his group was on schedule or a few seconds ahead.
I decided this was a bit slow and pulled ahead gradually, catching the 1:55 group at 17kms. I lost a bit of ground stopping for drinks several times then ran hard from 3kms out to finish in 1:55:18.
I placed 39th of 100 Men 55-59 and 1261 of 3493 overall. Not bad for a first try, pretty happy with that.
Congratulations to the other racers in the group!
Simon.
