To celebrate my 40th birthday, I treated myself to the Dorney Lake Half Marathon on Sunday 12th July!

It's a very flat four-lap course, but the scorching weather made it a real challenge. Happy to finish in 1:32:02, and, more importantly, I paced it much more sensibly than I did the previous week at another race.

It was great to see so much going on at the venue, with a range of running events alongside a triathlon, which created a fantastic atmosphere.

The only downside is that there's virtually no shade, so staying hydrated and finding ways to keep cool are essential. I have to admit, I was very tempted to jump into the lake by the finish!

Ultra 5k - 5 x 5k - a 5k on the hour every hour for 5 hours.

I love this event!!

It was so hot and humid this time and I found it quite tough but I managed to keep the races consistent, which was the aim.

Missed my partner in crime, Ian Datlen today but I had fantastic company with Jane Clarke, Alice Carty, Mark Larwood-Knights and Ben R. Great performances all round.

I was blessed to have my best supporters there for the last two (Paul and the kids) and of course, my wonderful coach, Peter Sibbett who was there to cheer us on, too. Thank you.

Great NHRR performances all round.
It was my 4th consecutive win in the ladies race, and my first overall podium (2nd) in this event. 😊 Alice came 3rd Lady and Jane was 4th. Mark was 5th overall (4th man) and 1st in his age category and Ben was 10th overall and 2nd in his age category.
