Magor Marsh 10K

Yesterday Mark raced the Magor Marsh 10K near Newport, about 15 miles from Cardiff. This race was part of Mark's training schedule in the lead up to a Half Marathon race that he's doing in September, so he knew he wouldn't be peaking for this 10K race but still would race it as hard as he could.

Over 220 people turned up for the race as it's renowned for being a flat, fast course. The race turned out to be a little slower than everyone had hoped (it was quite windy) but Mark still managed to come home in 13th position. Not quite a personal best time, but Mark was happy with his race, especially as it was not a priority race for him.
