I did the Great Manchester Run on Sunday – my first ever running event. I finished the 10km in 52 minutes 3 seconds. Pretty happy with it – I wasnt when running it but when I finished it was great!! Had been getting lazy leading up to the run (I was doing quite well as well). The most I did in training was 5km in 26 mins. That was maybe about 3-4 weeks before the run. In the run I passed the 5km marker about 23 or 24 minutes. Properly too fast since the 2nd 5km was nearly 30 minutes!
While going round and certainly around 7km I was thinking “Why I am doing this!!” LOL. Sprinted last 300 or so metres – just has to be done when everyone cheering a whizzing past ppl! 
However got to about 20m to line and was dying!! It was good wearing my United shirt as had a few United cheers and a few shouts of Ole (I have Solskjaer on the back of my shirt). I did get one guy shouting 1-0!
All for a good cause!
