He hadn't put money on you, did he?<BR/><BR/>Anyway, great race. I'm still wondering what would have happened if I had decided to stay with you rather than backing off. I guess I'll never know, but next time I might change tactics.<BR/><BR/>I can't fail to notice that I made up 30 seconds over the last mile. I wonder if I would have caught you had this been Cork to Cobh (which it wasn't, and speculation is pointless, but hey!).Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07802380462713592586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9214414108660001486.post-20616696907632349242008-09-15T11:49:00.000+01:002008-09-15T11:49:00.000+01:00Good one Grellan!

I was concerned earlier to read that you were going to try something new in a race. I think it is always best to try something in training and never do anything different in a race. How do you know how your body will react to something unless you have tried it?<BR/><BR/>Anyway keep that focus and training and I look forward to following your progress towards that sub 3hr marathon.<BR/><BR/>I would love to be at Dublin and follow your continuing battle with Thomas. Plus a Kilbarchan club mate John is also doing Dulin and he too is aiming for a sub 3hr so you should see him as well. <BR/><BR/>Well done and make sure this is not the run of your life - that it to come!<BR/><BR/>JohnJohn Kynastonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16436853872576303518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9214414108660001486.post-1960576086778375292008-09-15T08:04:00.000+01:002008-09-15T08:04:00.000+01:00AWESOME RUN!
