I kind of pushed myself mentally a bit today, ignoring the brain signals for me to slow down, especially in the middle section of the run. It hurt running at today's pace... but did I managed to obtain my 4th best time ever for this course with a time of 19:09.
Having said that though, I would of probably managed a slightly better time had a dog not run at me at the 2km mark, causing me to almost come to a dead stop before being allowed to accelerate off once again. That aspect of the run was disappointing considering the effort I had been putting in. If it had not been for the dog incident, I may have crept into Bronze or even Silver position!

Knee Update
My knee is much better but still not 100%. I did not really feel it much whilst running, but I did afterwards for a little while.
