A good day out in Hatfield Broad Oak not to be mixed with Hatfield in Hertfordshire (I wondered why the Sat Nav displayed 60min to destination). The race which is part of the annual village festival and is a closed road course was full of runners and supporters. The course was tough and although overcast the weather was very humid.

I’d entered the Manchester BUPA 10k as I’d read that the course was very quick. Luckily HSBC had some reserve places and I was lucky to be given a entry to the race. The week prior to the race my HSBC T-Shirt arrived but still no chip from BUPA. This was a slight concern but on arriving home on Tuesday the envelope had arrived with my number and I was good to go. I arrived in Bury on...

Well the day started with a snow storm in Stevenage and Beca left to go for her day with the Rainbows. We left in the car and as soon as we arrived Watford we were relieved to find that it was raining and no snow could be seen. It was a hard course and was 6.9 miles. I paced myself a bit better than my last Cross Country run and managed a top 10 result. Okay I was 10th! It was the last run for...
