Comments:
Started out really fast and after about 100m I glanced behind me and there were at most only 10 people. I settled into a rhythm though and slowly moved up the field and was able to finish really strongly.

 

What would I do differently?
Be more prepared for the fast start.


Event Comments:
I thinks the mile is a really awkward distance to race. Anything less than a mile (&1500m) you can just hammer as hard as you can and anything longer you can settle into a rhythm. With the mile I felt that I no sooner had I settled into a good rhythm that I had to sprint to the finish line.

I defiantly want to train properly for a mile at some point and aim for sub 5 mins.
