Tis the annual science park fun run. Last year I managed 7:40 but was somewhat injured (before, not by). This year (not to keep you in suspense) I got 7:06, which is rather better. James Timmins got 6:59 though, good for him. Full results here.
The pic is me (behind, in orange) handing over the baton at the end of lap one to James. James was a late sub in for us: on the morning of the run Stephen "quitter" Bennett wimped out with some feeble excuse about a cough, but he did rope James in for us. Kevin bravely ran through his shin splints for lap 3 in 7:40, and Ian the Jones brought up our rear in lap 4 with just-under-10: 9:52. Had Ian come in with 7:52 our team time would have been 29:37 (instead of 31:37) we'd have been about 1/4 of the way down the teams; as it was we were 1/2 way down.
Weather: lovely if cool.
CSR won overall (again). Here are Maz, Jerome, Dan and Neil Sunderland.

3:57 pace over 1.84 km. Good!
End note: I just realised (http://www.camfunrun.org/results/) that I was faster than all but 5 women, and was 105 out of 560-odd overall.
Damien at CSR took this:
which is rather good and (coincidentally I think) of me. One orange in a sea of white.
Tom C took this:
We really need to learn how to be photographed.
