Very interesting, and some consolation that everyone seems to have similiar results, i.e. slower than hoped.

Like lots of others on the forum I felt fine until about half way (1:45) then really struggled, was tempted to stop but battled through, and it really did feel like a battle between my mind and my body. Was just glad to finish in one piece!

Although I was close to expected time my HR was through the roof the whole way round.

Average HR was 172 well over 90% of max whereas I had done 4x20 milers in training averaging 162HR & 8:45 per mile.

3:28 (actual)
3:20 (aim)
3:26 (FLM 2005)

Good idea on another thread to look at finish as %age e.g. I came in 10.08% down the field, then compare this %age to other years and coming the same %age down the field would have given a 3:20 in both 2006 & 2004, both cooler years and a 3:24 in 2005. Therefore I conclude that my 2007 run was actually better than my 2005 run even though its 2 min slower.
