26th. i pulled away from a group of Clayton runners at the return from Cockhill and attached to the first lady group, we went off course a bit , then I pulled away from them on my own and got totally lost. If i had stayed with the Clayton lads looking at the results I could have been between 14th and 17th. Ce La vie.

However is it me or were the times slower this year overall. I felt stronger than I have for ages but even if I had finished with Clayton I would have been slower than my best to date which was 3.35 after bonking badly and i was much lower down the field then.
