Chester half marathon

Ran the Chester half marathon yesterday in good cool running conditions: continuous rain helped a lot. As such, a bit disappointed not to break 1:30. Ended up with 1:31:29, largely because I blew up on the final tiny hill into Handbridge. Lost a lot of time here, which meant I couldn't get under the 90 min barrier. Still, a PB and an enjoyable race. Loosened up with a mountain bike ride in the evening, thinking the rain had stopped. It hadn't, and gave us a real drenching as we forded streams on the tiny lanes north of Rhosemor.
