Simon
So sorry it wasn't as good you'd hoped. Head colds usually make me feel lethargic & less tolerant of others, not an ideal state for a mass participation run with thousands of people thronging around and getting in your way.

Good luck for 2004

Bad luck Simon, probably partly the head cold and partly just an off day - don't you just hate them when they happen on race days?

Oops

R4L is right I meant 2003, of course when you have a great run in 2003 you'll be really fired up for a storming '04.

Hope the world looks a better place this morning
