Again, not a huge amount of training and prep... so I was in two minds whether I should participate or not. I eventually made a decision and didn't regret it! The Brussels Half Marathon did not disappoint.
Some key experiences of the even was to run through the National Stadium and in the shadow of the Atomium; the parks were great and the crowds very encouraging.
I also changed tactics a little bit by pushing myself on the downhills rather than using them for recovery... and I think that paid off: I was able to maintain a steady running pace for the whole distance and crossed the line at 01:57:11 - good for my second fastest HM! Looking forward to the next event already...
