ACT Masters Track 3000m ; Keith in Bega
The weather started wet and got more wet but never a deluge like last week. Some wind but not really windy. It was cool and humid. All up not bad for running. Worst was the wet track making heavy shoes.
All but two of the starters were from our little group. Results: Me 9:49, Steve 10:10 (season best), Anthony 10:18, Rod 11 mins+, Kathy 12:49 (season best), Helen 13:24(ill), Dale 14 mins?, Minnie 14:28 (season best).
We did a warm down on track. Didn't stay for later events, all clothes saturated.
Of me: 17km for the day. No niggles during race, knee was great. I didn't do strides quicker than 18 seconds and not running hard at any point of race. I'm ready to start moving forward again.
Keith in Bega the usual warm up and warm down with strides. Set: 1300m 4:19, 200m 37, 1500m 5:10. Track was boggy with the rain.
Next week 3000m early at Woden. Kathy and I will have collected 4 good runs if we both participate, 5 to count of 9 in series. After that I can start building some form for a half marathon. It's a funny year 2016. Australian Masters Champs is late (mid-April), a long time before World Masters Champs (Oct/Nov). Patience will win over early form.
