1. I'm an idiot.















2. Thanks to Simon for catching me and stopping with me when we were chasing sub-40'.















3. Thanks for the medic for the list back to the start line - although I'd not realised he wasn't going to let me start again!















4. Thanks to all fellow runners for coming up to me at the end and asking how I was. I'm fine. And I'll be fine as long as I keep off the Double Espresso gels. I should have left it in the bag for Mike. If only I'd taken it to Scotland in April...















...I only run two 10ks a year and this is the quickest. Next year... unless I pull it* off on the beach in December.
