Err, that was unexpected... I was the first bloke home, and was second overall - beaten by a very nice woman, with whom I ran for the first 2km. We were totally on our own, but I dropped back just a little because my knee was giving me warning signs, which didn't end up turning into anything worse, but which did mean I was more or less 150m behind her the rest of the way. My time was just over 42 minutes, which wouldn't trouble the front end of any 10k race in a bigger city or later in the season, but that's about 3 minutes faster than I was aiming for.
Happy!
