Shrewsbury half marathon - Sunday 10th October 2021
I was back home to where it all began for my latest running venture. I was excited about racing my ‘home’ half marathon through historic Shrewsbury and then out into the countryside
but with a few weeks to go the course was altered. It now consisted of an out and back x2 route and didn’t sound as appealing.
However, after the first out and back I was happily in 6th place and knew that if I got to 10 miles that I would be safe. All went to plan and I was super happy to finish 6 /576 in a PB time of 1.21.50. The course was better than I had expected and the organisation was great.
Next stop is Reading in a few weeks!
