AIS Hard as a rock track : 4 days to go
We scheduled in a TT 5km at AIS simply because there are four days of the old track left and we don't get the new track until 2014 (grass only until then). On any other day we would have run in the bush tracks...so glad we didn't.
5000m TT: 1. Positive head 2. Perseverance
The wind as the BOM attest was gusts to 39kpm at 8:30am, but we did any way.
Steve 17:48 (all time PB, but no where near current form) ; Keith 18:07? ; Me 17:00? ; Jane 12:00? 3km
It wasn't so difficult for me until lap 6 when the wind knocked 4 seconds out of me in 90m (at 3:10/km), from there it was all down hill.
I looked across the track each lap after at Steve and Keith and lost track of the laps, but couldn't work the story out until post race, so sorry.
In any case a good session and some lessons for all.
Tomorrow a long recovery run, Monday or Tuesday a final track session, a huge taper until Thursday, Victorian 5000m Championships.
