Great efforts, well done! Sometimes the hardest thing is to stop when it's the sensible thing to do, and also to keep going when your running partner stops. Looked FREEZING there, definitely worth extra Kudos. We've done Telford Parkrun here but in beautiful sunshine.
Thanks Tom for the kind words.
My soon to be wife and I have just started running together and I really admire your love and support for each other. It's not about how well races go, you share some beautiful experiences together that I hope to emulate 🤙
That's lovely to hear Liam. Yes we share the downs and the ups.
Great performance in less than ideal conditions! Beautiful to look at, but not great for racing! Wonderful effort considering you weren't feeling 100% - Thanks for sharing folks!
Thanks Paul
Great time John - fantastic mental strength 👍
Thanks Lee
I completely understand that feeling. When you're not feeling well (and especially with the cold weather), it can be so hard - physically and mentally - to start back up again after stopping a race. I'm glad that you listened to your body, though. Hoping you can rest and feel better soon!
Thank you. I know it was the right thing to do as I now have a full cold virus so the body was obviously telling me to back off. 🙂
Sorry today wasn’t your day Dawn. Stopping when it was already so cold must have been hard to get warm again after. I can’t believe how little everyone was wearing 😀 Well done to John for having to run his own race. The speed of all those first runners coming through was amazing and you couldn’t have asked for anymore of the organisers in getting the route ready. Well done again and hope you’re both rested and warm after probably one of the chilliest 10k’s ever ❄️
Thanks Rachel. Yes it was very cold! I had double layer gloves on, a buff and long socks, but in retrospect I should've worn a base layer.
I think hanging around watching the elite men added to my getting so cold. Even tonight my legs are still cold and throat even worse. It's just one of those things - a virus and freezing temperatures!
John is amazing at sticking to a task....🙂
Well done to both of you! Glad you listened to your body, Dawn. Hope you feel better soon! Best wishes & happy holidays!
Thanks
Great video guys. Hope you're feeling better soon Dawn, well done John for persevering when you were running alone
Thanks. Dawn is full of cold but OK. John quite enjoyed his experience 🙂 Both of us hope to return to the race next year. 🏃🏃♀️🙂
Looks like a very fun race. Dawn, you made the right choice. I am sure your next race will go better. Nice job, John!
Thanks Jay. Onwards as always. 🙂🏃♀️👍
Great video guys, glad I’ve found your channel!
I was the yellow vest starting to the left of you both 😊
Look forward to both catching up on your older content and your new releases!
Thanks Sam. Have just been over to your channel and subscribed. Lots of good content there on your recent training blocks and plans to improve your times. We look forward to following your journey.
Looks like a fun race even though a little chilly. Sorry about early exit Dawn and great run John!!
Great on the out and back to see all the fast folks at the front.
Great video guys. Loved the footage of wave 1...just shows the talent on show it was mad
Yes a real thundering down the path. Although in retrospect we'd have been better off warming up round the car park like you did.
Its very hard Dawn when things don't go to plan, I'm gutted for you as I think this was one of the events you were training really hard for. However you made the right decision under the circumstances, no point in trying to continue if your ill. Well done John on your seasons best, you've made great improvements over the last few months and looks like you are getting back to your best. It was great seeing Donato on your video and also you two on his.
Thanks Kev. Yes, it was one we were training for and Dawn had an outside chance of an England Masters qualification again. Looking at the results though she'd probably have finished 4th in age group so would've missed out...She lives to fight another day although full of cold currently. 🙂 John is working his way back and feels quite positive after this race. 👍
And thanks for the shout out
Love the video I'm travelling this year with a friend to race it. I've had that before where I felt a bit under weather before the race but also strong at the start but you burn out faster when you're not usual health.
Enjoy. Just make sure you enter the right race, unlike us!
It's never easy to put in a hard effort when ill, along with the cold it will take it's toll. Well done to both of you!
Thanks. Yes, sometimes it's best saving it for another day. 🙂
Well done guys, what weather as well. Great work.

Thanks Harry. Another go this year looking to improve on second to last.
might just see you there@@tworunningbrooms
Wow quite a day for a race. Hope Dawn is OK and well done to John for a good run. The leading runners were really motoring in the first wave weren't they and I see Sam Harrison did 31:10 which would probably win most 10Ks outright. Out of interest what statistic are you referring to as the fastest 10K in the UK ?
Thanks Tim. That's what the race organisers say. Hence the question mark on the thumb nail. I guess it's down to depth of runners going sub 30 /sub 32 etc. Which you'd expect in the national championship.
What is the official word from Power of 10 on the fastest 10k?
BTW we saw the chap who featured at the end of your Battersea 5k in the elite race. A long trek for him?
@@tworunningbrooms and yes presume Joseph Gonzalez - ironic as I posted the URL of your video in his Strava.
Aw dawn it just wasn’t meant to be - it sounded like a few things went against you - headache sore throat and freezing cold conditions the main thing is ur ok - now to rest up n take it easy for abit - then easy ur way back in ❤ ps well down to John on a cracking run …… 😁
Thanks, Clair. I've bounced back and onto the next thing....😁
