Four Villages half marathon

An encouraging performance in yesterday's Four Villages half marathon (Helsby) - my return to racing since my disaster in early December. I decided to take it fairly easy and go for sub-90 minutes, which I've never done before (my last half marathon was last May, there aren't many around these days). But conditions turned out better than expected, so I pushed it a bit while remaining comfortable and enjoyable throughout. Got round in just under 1:28, which is pleasing and gives me a platform to beat in forthcoming flatter halfs. At least I've got a bit of form back.
