City2Sea Preview
Well it is Wednesday and my legs still feel terrible. A solid 50 minutes this afternoon out and back as I did yesterday. The legs will be good tomorrow when I do my 1000m tempo run in 3:00 or so on track. If not a complete day off will freshen them up. Distance last 7 days 96km. It will stay like that until Saturday when it will be in the 70s or low 80s. I am on track duty tomorrow evening.
City2Sea weather looks terrible. Wet and windy will suit me as I can find a small bunch and hang in there for a while seeking cover. Most of the race should be into the wind. 2011 was the last time I did the race as 14km and 48:30 or so, 14th place. Typically I am 30th in an AthsVic XCR race of the same distance and 50-60th in BIG sister City2Surf 14km. Gives an idea of depth of field. Two of the top 4 M50+ reside in Victoria, chances of bumping into one on race day is possible. Steve is running well. I would have a chance against John although he is as tough as they come.
Being an easy week I have had time on my hands...for playing water fights with Bella. (pulled the GoPro out especially for it)
