Race: Cape Town International Airport 10km


 
06 December 2015 - Feels like I've not raced / run for ages. I had asked earlier in the week whether anyone was keen to join me, and after getting no feedback, I saw it as an opportunity to have a lie in on Sunday morning. Then last night at the year-end function and awards evening, Moses from the running club asked me whether I was still planning to run today. So it was a good opportunity to not have too late an evening (although I did only get home at 22:30), and it was good to not head to the race alone.
 
This is the second year ACSA hosted the race. The weather was quite weird, misty and grey on this side of the mountain, clear skies on the other side and grey-ish again towards the airport. It got quite hot during the race.
 
Very flat race. Also a bit smelly as you run along places such as Intewaste, but it is what it is. Did the first 5kms in 27 minutes so was chuffed with that, however something hot-wired in my mind and I could just not keep up the speed.
 
Time: 01:02:56 - not the sub 60 yet, however seeing that I have not run for quite some time, I'm quite happy with the result.
