This evening a time trial up the hill me brittany, 2km 10% first km 4% 2nd km, from start kid on bike decides to race me very close but kid smoked me in finish straight me straight to hospital :-D
WooHoo, Cadel beats Alberto in a very tight finish, even after changing bikes, great stuff ! Wish I was there to see it...Did you get to see the finish SBx ?
This week didn't start well with some lap timing marshals giving me an extra 3-4 laps to complete with no fault of my own before I could start to get back on terms in the 10000m event. As things panned out I suffered like most others in the heat and chasing back on was impossible for me once the hamstring muscles started saying No!! The 1000m result wasn't so bad, finishing 3rd behind the front running three in just over 42 minutes. I have just been going through the motions since the 1000m, cheering on as best I can from the sidelines. When I get back home in coming days I will have a short break and start again ant build up into running from again as soon as the hamstrings can repair themselves. Today was mostly walking on the lush course as Stromlo xc circuits. If by chance I can do a little more than that I will try. Otherwise I look forward to making the long trip home.
All runs done from home this morning with all the stars out under clear skies. I ran 12km in the morning punctuated by watching Paris Roubaix cycling on TV It has been a few years since I was last in France watching the cycling in person and I miss it. TV will have to do.
