In summary a fantastic event. My wife forsakes Parkrun for me today but Bromley is not running. I head for hilly fields. Small, friendly with a top notch event organisation.
It's hilly as you would expect but the views are fantastic, even better I imagine in the winter. It is a 3 lap course with about 5 sharp hills per lap. But what goes up must go down. I find that I am powering up the hills and recovering on the downhills. I gradually work my way though the field. What I lack in grace I make up for in power and grunt. It always surprises me how many people are beaten by hills.
My form has been good (3 PBs in my last 3 5km outings) Today no pb is on the cards because of the course difficulty. But I run well and I run consistently. I even manage a sprint at the finish.
A great event and a good run. For various reasons I missed my hill session last night; today made up for it.
