Pennington Series 3000m ; Keith in Bemboka

Weather very warm, windy in back straight, sunny at 6pm.

I had the series wrapped up, 2nd place was still up for grabs with Colin M50 95 leading Kathy W60 93 by 2 places (series by points not time, 50 for win each race, 49,48. I was on 100 after 800m and 1500m)

I gave Kathy 700m head start, Steve M45 gave me a big head start. I ran 2:30 first 800m, held 3:10/km for the first 1600m before the wind cracked me. I caught Kathy with 500m to go and turned off the gas, finished in 9:59. Steve ran 10:08 just catching Kathy 12:57 before the line. Colin finished two places back to tie with Kathy in the series, goes to count back, oldest in their age (I think Kathy, May turns 65).

Yesterday Keith ran 15km, massage in the afternoon. Today Keith 2000m 6:57, 500m 1:40 before all the lawn mowing got the better of him.
