On a serious note though,there was a little incident on the final mile, where a young woman was in quite a bad shape, and required medical help, and the nearest marshall to her was 500mtr away, but he had no way to contact the paramedics, this incident could have been much worse.
I answered the questions as honestly as possible, I dont think that the fact I only marked it 80% will harm the credibility of this event some how.
I was, like so many other's, concerned for her well being, it was very hot, there was no air, and she was in trouble. This was why I marked it down one.
It is in no way a slur to the committee and everyone connected to the MOK run, they do and have done in previous year's, a fantastic job.

Sorry Kevin but to answer your question to one I didnt know when i started running either but PB means 'Personal Best ' as explained in detail below .
Once you've run your first road race, you have a PB, or a "Personal Best." It refers to your best time in a race of a specific distance. So, if you run a 5K race in 28:45, that's your PB for the 5K distance. If you run faster than 28:45 in a subsequent 5K race, then you have a new PB for that distance. So you'll have PBs for different race distances, from 1-milers to marathons.
You may also hear some runners call their best race times "PRs" or "Personal Records." Whatever they call it, experienced runners love to talk about their PBs because it helps them stay motivated to keep training and racing. It's also fun to keep track of your PBs in your training log, so you can refer back to them and record a new one when you achieve it.
