A poor performance - with a hangover

16M - including Dartford Half Marathon in 72.52 (2nd)

I'll blame this one on a proper hangover. The hills might have contributed to my speed too, but burping Chianti at mile 8 is not a good prognostic marker for half marathon performance.

Never mind any of that though, I enjoyed the race. I was 3rd for the first half and managed to pick things up a bit in the closing miles.

Looking at the times of the other guys in the field, I probably shouldn't be too distraught. But I can't say that makes me happy with the performance. I think I need to be a bit more focussed to perform well.
