Mister Chops 7 Posted March 13, 2011 Good luck in your Norwich Half Marathon run today. I know you''ve trained hard for this and I''m sure it''ll go well.Only words of wisdom I can offer - don''t get caught up in the excitement at the start and go off faster than your normal speed. If you control your first couple of miles and stick to your planned pace, you''ll overtake all the runners who went off too fast round about mile 9-10, and that will give you the extra motivation to keep going.Oh, and use the force.

I ran it today for the Darren Huckerby Trust and I can whole heartedly say that it was the most difficult thing I have ever done in my life. I trained for 2 1/2 months but before that hadn''t even run a mile since High School (eleven years) so I was stoked to finish. Congratulations again on your time!
