Newham 10k - March 2011

A "Great Run" this weekend around Newham, taking in the Olympic Park developments.  It was great to get up close to the Olympic stadium, Velodrome and Aquatic Centre, as well as the new Westfield in East London.

It was a super well organised event, with nearly 4,000 runners taking to the streets around Stratford.  The mens winner ran an incredible 31.22, and Sonia O'Sullivan came second in the ladies race.  I was happy with a 50:21, coming in 618th overall, 82nd in my age/gender group.
