Chris Hoy Edinburgh Half Marathon

I headed over to Edinburgh on Sunday morning for the Chris Hoy Edinburgh Half-Marathon as a pre-race recce for the Edinburgh Marathon in May that follows 12 miles of the course.It was a miserable morning with the rain and wind not letting up through the whole 13 miles. The course is pretty flat and a good race for PBs. It was a well organised event but due to the weather a pretty grim experience with few spectators en-route. My chip time was 1:39:56. Watch time 1:39:58. (This required a final sprint on the finishing straight!!) Very happy with that as this was a PB for me by 6 minutes.

Well done to Graham on a massive pb and thanks for the race report.
