		<description><![CDATA[Back to racing news now. I ran the Oxford Town and Gown 10k race last Sunday, and don&#8217;t believe I&#8217;ve even reported back on the 5k I ran back in April. Shameful.
Okay &#8211; the 5k, my first ever, was a great event. I caught an early Saturday train to Basingstoke, which didn&#8217;t quite seem like [...]]]></description>

40 miles, September 20th at the High Peak 40 race from Buxton, Derbyshire.
Time: 7:06:55
Position: 17th
I had a plan, having printed off the check point split times from two of last year&#8217;s contenders, one who finished in 7:07 and one who finished in 8:30. I stuck to the times of the faster runner almost to the [...]]]></description>

The High Peak 40 race is on September 20th this year, in Buxton. This will be the furthest I&#8217;ve ever run in a day, and probably the furthest I will run until I&#8217;m 50. This madness is inspired by the great [...]]]></description>

Simply fantastic! 24 miles in 4:01. I got lost, about 2 miles from the end, or I would have made it in 3:50 or so. Perfect blustry weather, not wet underfoot, views were out of this world, and all finished off with a pint of Black Sheep at the end, watching runners then walkers coming [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Antwerp Marathon: 26.2 miles (42k)
3 hours 13 mins 2 seconds
I travelled through some zones of despair I hadn&#8217;t seen before on Sunday. It crept up to 21 degrees C with no shade for long stretches &#8211; quite nasty, though I know that&#8217;s not really hot.
First half was fine and dandy, keeping ahead of the 3:15 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nervous days beginning &#8211; last long run done and dusted last Friday, 23 miles at 6am before work in the strong wind and rain. Just three more weeks now. Finally got round to mapping the route &#8211; and it&#8217;s pretty much dead flat, so the only thing that could go against me is the weather.

Rhayader 20 mile race: 2h40m
That was harder than it should have been. Spent the race trying to recalibrate the garmin footpod, which meant I could see neither the time nor my pace/speed. As a result took it faster than I should have, but not fast enough to count as a race &#8211; kind of caught [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[race report time! Last one until April&#8217;s marathon.

New toy &#8211; playing with the Garmin Forerunner 50 which tracks heart rate and cadence and distance using a footpod thingie, a surprisingly discrete plastic bit that clips onto your shoe laces. Out of the box it was pretty accurate, but I made the mistake of trying to [...]]]></description>
