Hi Martin, congrats on completing the Balmoral 10K! It's great to hear that you were able to finish the race in 55 minutes and 47 seconds. Your determination and perseverance in tackling the hill is truly inspiring. It's also impressive that you were able to maintain a good pace throughout the race. Keep up the good work and all the best for your future races. Cheers!

Thanks Mihai, it was one of those rare days when things actually went the way you want them to! I'm looking forward to other events this year, I just need to pick some!

[@runningwithstelvio]

Well done Martin! Back to racing ...Very beautiful place for running a 10k. Congrats for the result, I saw you are happy with it! 😊👍

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Thanks Stelvio, it was a cracking location & race & I was really happy with how everything went 😀

[@markg99]

That's a big negative split 👍🏻 Well done for hitting all your goals mate. Made it look easy. I think the silent band was the highlight for me 😂

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Cheers Mark, the silent band certainly made me smile 😂

[@DevRunner]

Beautiful setting for a race - it really reminds me of the mountain here in NC! Going down with the band - love it! Amazing castle - great to see that crowd at the finish! Nothing like a negative split! Keep pushing Martin!

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Thanks Paul, everything was great about the day (even the weather!), I'll need to make a point of doing negative splits, you always enjoy it when it happens 😀

[@GillFisherRunningMySpace]

Martin, it sounds like a great day for race day! Nicely done!!

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Thanks Gill, it was a great day all round 😀

[@paulanderson1417]

Well done Martin, great to see you doing events again. Looks a brilliant day 🤩

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Thanks Paul, it was a great feeling to be doing an event again, albeit short but you've gotta start somewhere 😀

[@NomadTerraCrawlers]

Congratulations on your race Martin. Good coverage. It was packed. Look at that toilet queue haha.

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Thanks Guys, there was a great vibe about the event & thankfully the toilet queue moved pretty quickly 😂

[@essextrails]

Well done Martin. Bet that felt good. You have definitely made it back. Keep building up slowly. Take care.

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Thanks Peter, it certainly did feel good, can't believe it's taken so long to get to this stage but 2023 seems to finally be the year of visible progress 👍

[@jcolumbiap]

You did real well putting this together!
I’m surprised you are not all over the country doing this!

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Thanks Joe, if I had the money, I would 😀

[@soupyruns9709]

Looked like a great day out mate, amazing scenery as ever 😎

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Cheers Soupy, it was better weather than today 🌧️

[@chamonixcabs]

Well done. Getting back into it!!

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Cheers, it's all down to that Parkrun 👌

[@RyanCondon]

Great achievement, welldone! Looks like a great course aswell.

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Thanks Ryan, I'd recommend it if you ever get the chance 👍

[@peterbraidwood4834]

Nice one! Back on the trail!

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Cheers Peter, looked like I was luckier than you with the weather at the weekend, hope the Etape went well?

[@trailsagerunning]

Great coverage as usual Martin and congrats on the finish! Ever think about asking Jake to operate the drone while you race? It might produce some cool shots, although I'm sure he probably has better things to do than filming for his Dad, lol.

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Thanks Sage, Aye that would be good if Jake could do that, a small stumbling block is he works & stays a 2hr drive away, so a bit tricky!

[@trailsagerunning]

@@TheDeterminedRunner No excuse, he will fly the drone from 2 hrs away then ;)

[@vendejos]

That’s quite a lot of people for a 10k😁👍

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

It was a big field, didn’t feel too squashed though 😀

[@NomadTerraCrawlers]

Waiting for your next race!

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

I’m still looking for it 😀

[@reluctantfellrunner]

Very scenic. Did the helicopter give you a lift back? Best wishes on the next.

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Thanks Nigel, for some reason, they weren't giving lifts 😂
