Race conditions
Bright sunshine, hot, no wind
Report
Aargh... another race with a horrendously early start
(8.30am), which (for me) means getting up at 4.30am in
order to have breakfast in good time. Four hours sleep is
definitely not enough for a good race performance. But for
a hot day like this, an early start makes sense.
This is a flat course; combine that with the absence of
wind and you would expect some fast times. Not so - the
winner's time was only 1h12, and most runners were complaining about the heat. One little cup of water at each
of the three water stations is not enough on a day like
this, and I was feeling very thirsty towards the end, a
sure sign of dehydration. It would have been better to
carry one's own fluid.
Despite the problems with the heat, this is still a very enjoyable race, in (mostly) very pleasant scenery, and very
well marshalled.
