Rutherglen Fun Run 10km
Kelley 1st Female 4209 ; Maria 2nd female 4321 ; Kathy 4642 ; Minnie 4710 ; SB 2nd male 3318 ; Mick 4209 ; Geoff 5000
Of me: Previous results: 1991 32:43 1st ; 1996 34:17 2nd ; 1997 33:51 3rd and today 33:18 2nd...not that far off what I did as a 29yo and a lot better than as a 35-36yo. Stuck to the tempo I have been training at or 3:20/km, leaked some time on all the hills (they were long with 4-5 hills of 700m to 1500m and probably 4-5% gradient) kept the new form that I have been working on the whole way and ran really strong over the last 2km. The numbers say it all...very happy.
Of the others: WOW!! All the girls in the top 10, first and second overall for two girls in their 50s.
Between us pocketed $100 cash, three bottles muscat, two sash (never won a sash before:-)
Meanwhile back in the capital, Heize, Janene a 15km run.
