No duathlon today...just the 5k run...and came 8th

Didn't manage the bike to/from the local 5km run today, too cold for me, so just drove there instead. And boy was it cold! I couldn't feel my hands all the way round the run!

Anyway, I was 10 seconds slower than a fortnight ago, which I'm pretty pleased with as I've been away on a course for the last fortnight (very much unstructured training during this time and enjoying the bar a little too much!) and I've got a stinking cold (shouldn't have ran really), so all in all, pretty happy. And due to the weather and the fact that there was a local x-country run on the same day, most of the big guns didn't turn up, so somehow I managed to bag an 8th pace finish. OK, not a great time, but you've got to be in it to win it!!!!!!
