Keith in Bega 3 x 1000m ; Australian Masters Athletics Championships Darwin Preview
On grass harness track Keith ran 3 x 1000m (3:33, 3:22, 3:29). That's a big return to form and just before he turns 60. Plenty of time before track season. He's had a steady build up so far. Way to go Keith.
Arrived in Darwin this afternoon after traveling most of the day. Jog from hotel to registration to Coles for shopping and back was further than I wanted. My legs aren't coping with this sudden change from cold to heat as yet.
Over the next four consecutive days as M55 I race 10000m with M30-59 10:10am ; 1500m M55-59 8:04pm (under lights) ; 5000m with M50-59 and 8000m XC all males.
My most competition for a medal will be in the 1500m (four very good athletes fighting for three medals). In the cross country there will be strong competition with Darren and the younger males. Those two events I'll be going all in. 10000m tomorrow will be hot and very windy with some smoke haze. I'll be following heels as much as I can if the legs aren't good first up.
