Stromlo Running Festival Age Sex Adjusted
This morning normal squad activities at Stromlo from 8am. Just the six of us included 4 x 100m, 4 x 500m with 500m jog recovery followed by 1000m. Kathy all efforts @ 4min/km (paced by me) and a 1km 4:27. The boys much quicker.
2 hours later the Stromlo Running Festival Age Sex Adjusted 7.5km xc. Quite a few of us ran with Kathy S 2nd female, Helen 4th female, Maria not far behind.
On age standard both sexes combined Me 5th, Kathy S 4th, Sue 3rd and our Victorian friend Lavinia either 2nd or 1st, Rown Walker either 2nd or 1st, David Clarke definitely not 1st, a mix up. The top 5 on age standard around 15 seconds apart in total.
Of me: Day off yesterday the foot sore. With squad duty this morning was well warmed up with the foot working ok. Had a huge tussle with young Torley and a young triathlete. Triathlete pulled out with a lap to go leaving two of us to swap surges and decide 7th overall. I tried two long efforts and broke free with 1km to go. 14 seconds slower than last year, pleasing given last year there were no slow runners to dodge and Monna. Marty, Harry and Kathy S to chase on the last lap in 2012.
Post-race a huge brunch with Helen and friends.
