Volkswagen Prague Marathon 2016



Grantham Running Club's Neil Emerson continued his European tour of Marathons last Sunday by competing through the beautiful city of Prague. An anterior knee injury three weeks prior to the race meant he had no hope of matching his recent time in Barcelona which was just as well as race day turned out to be a very hot one and the course included a lot of long straight switchbacks which don't suit him. After an initial painful attempt at racing Neil relaxed back to run the route with his sister and save his body for the next one in Berlin finishing in 5:02:29 almost an hour outside his best.
