My first ever sub-1:40 half. Pretty chuffed with the time after turning 50 in January.
My PT set me a 3-month training plan, which was horrendous at times, but it did the trick.
Wore carbons for the first time in race. Made a huge difference with recovery, especially on inclines.
But I think they did lead to my back twinging in the last mile and then going into spasm after I crossed the finish line!
Well done - impressive!
Beware of doing too much in them - a few in my Club have been reporting injuries because of them and a couple actually returned them for a refund.
