Parkrun Gungahlin 5km 16:31 2nd

Double Parkrun New Years Day started at Tuggeranong this morning 7:30am. Gungahlin started at 9:30am delayed so Tuggeranong finishers could drive to the other end of town. By then it was very warm, sunny but no wind. Many Parkrunners completed both. I only ran Gungahlin. Jen ran a PB at Tuggeranong.

No wind was in my favour, having someone to chase also, splits were good enough to stay motivated for a Parkrun PB, I only had to suffer enough in the heat.

Splits from Garmin: 3:08, 3:18, 3:13, 3:20, 3:22,(+ 8 seconds)= 16:31. I was through 3000m in 9:39, my quickest of the five runs I've done here in the last fortnight or so. Winner was 15:26.

Summing up: 16:34, 16:33, 16:42, 16:39, 16:31 all on the same course with 130km+ in the legs last 7 days for all 5 runs. No more Parkruns for a while, I'll concentrate on sessions to get me going faster than that.
