Women & Girls Fun Run 5km 2015

This morning a run to watch Women & Girls Fun Run 5km. I was late waking which meant 10km in 37:50 to make the start and 10km in 45 minutes to return home. I will need a 20 minute loosener this afternoon to recuperate the muscles.

As usual all our girls did great either winning or placing in their age groups. Sarah 17:58 and V 18:08 fought out the win. A special mention to both BA W40 21:12 and Nikki 1st W45 20:11 who are both my friends from way back in the 80s and ran awesome. KT 2nd W45 20:43, Helen 1st W55 21:18, Maria 2nd W60 21:56, Kathy 1st W60 21:48 who finished ahead of daughter Alison W30 22:15.

Some images of our girls from the day.

Long Intervals

Of me: Early set. Same set as last 2 weeks, quicker again. 2000m (631), 1600m (5:13), 1200m (3:57)[first 4 efforts at 10km pace], 800m (2:30), 400m (69)...all with 200m recovery. Running technique much better. Form much better...not sure how much the form is due to iron jab or 5 weeks of consistent training and some great sessions. Of the others: I paced 5200m at exactly 4mins/km. Roget and Tori did what they could at that pace. Maria did 3 x 1000m. Janene on her own did similar to other weeks in the 4:10-4:15 range. Heidze did 1600m, 1200m, 800m, 400m and looking very comfortable in doing so. Kathy some strides. Helen this morning 4 x 7 minutes.
