Morrison Great Newham Run 2015

Stadium Selfie!

Since my last run in 2014, I have tried to continued to run weekly. Most weeks I have been able to. There was no hesitation in applying for the Morrison Great Newham Run despite it being 10km and that I never had attempted a 10km. But the stadium finish really appealed to me.

The conditions of the day of the run was good. Maybe too good, as it was sunny and quite warm. In such heat, running is always an issue for me and probably for anyone. The course was overall quite tough in my opinion because there was so many hills!

The sound of the crowd motivated me to finish the last leg with power, strength and happiness! I was so glad it was over because it had been quite tough. I wanted to aim for under an hour however I was unsuccessful on this occasion, however it has to be the best run so far because my dearest friends were there to share the experience with me. It was lovely.

The results this year according to chip timings:
1:03:57
6311th Place
Age & Gender (20-34): 840th place
Age Group Results: 2524th place
Gender Group: 1899th place

Until next year!
