So it was we left the hall at 7.30 am on sunday morning to head for the race at christchurch town hall. Josh, Craig, Mark and Andy were racing in the half marathon whereas I was just trying to get a PB for the 10k. When we reached the venue, we didn't want to get out cos it was too cold. Eventually we reluctantly did. Met Erica from Maor107 tutorial class and fellow tramper. She was doing the half marathon walk. Also met Peter from ENCI 429 who was supporting his wife doing the marathon. The course is one of the fastest in the world as it is almost flat. Timing for 10k was 44:52; didn't go below 40 minutes. The rest did pretty good times of 1hr 30+ min for half marathon which is excellent. Returned in the afternoon for the prize presentation. We did not win anything, unfortunately.
