Woke up to a perfect day for running. Switched back to my usual breakfast for today's run of bulletproof coffee and a plain omelette about 2 hours before the start.

Started the race with the goal of going sub-78 and attempted to pace it as such but I felt so good and soon found I was running quicker without much effort. Tried to holdback at least to half way and was sort-of successful. Passed halfway approximately how 20s ahead of pace.

Knowing I had a good amount of time in the bank, decided to push things a little to see what would happen. Nothing happened. I still felt pretty good and ticked over the k's at a good pace. Some at planned pace, many faster. Got to the top of the hill on the way back and saw sub-78 was easily on the card and a little push could see it getting close to 77mins.

Pushed those last few kilometers and was in the finishing straight with a few seconds to go. I pushed and watched the clock tick over 1:17:00 and backed off a bit. I didn't even think to keep pushing an aim for a PB.

As it turns out, I came thiiiiiis👌 close to a PB today: official chip time was 1:17:04, TWO seconds slower than my PB 😭

On the plus side, sub-77 should be on the cards at Fleet next month.
