Oh well, I finally got round to checking the official results, and my final time was 41:55, so I lost 2 seconds somewhere. Careless ;-)


The split times tell their own story though:

km Total Split

0 00:00
1 03:44 03:44
2 07:40 03:56
3 12:02 04:22
4 16:20 04:18
5 20:47 04:27
6 24:52 04:05
7 28:56 04:04
8 33:12 04:16
9 37:28 04:16
10 41:55 04:27

Slowest km: 04:27
Fastest km: 03:44

In a nutshell, my pace was all over the place. I don't know how I managed to run the 5th (flat) kilometre at the same pace as the (mostly uphill) 10th, but there you go.

I think I over-compensated for my fast pace at the beginning, but then again I was knackered when I crossed the line so I don't think I could have gone much faster. 20 seconds, maybe.

I find it quite daunting that if I want to beat my PB in December, virtually every kilometre will have to be sub-3:50... better get in training now ;-)
