The start was much more more bearable than in previous years but it was still incredibly quick. People were pushing and shoving left right and center but luckily I got clear and was soon running with a clear road. Some people had started way too fast and I started picking people off as I found my pace. The middle mile wasn't pretty but the support of the crowds that early were amazing. I gave it everything in the last 800 meters and finished in a time of 16:32, improving about 2 minutes from my previous best the year before. I ended up coming 31st in the borough challenge, 2 and a half minutes behind winner Alex Yee who I train with at the London Triathlon Academy. I ended up top 100 overall so there is still plenty room for improvement but I've still got two more years in this age group so I look forward to coming back next year!
