ACT Masters 1500m Championships 2019

A nice training race in perfect weather. My rough splits: 56,76,78,73. Steve was near identical for the first and last laps. I skipped away a little in the middle laps. Almost all of my middle distance races (and training) in the last couple of years have been run with the same plan.

My 800m 1500m plan: Cautious start for first 50 seconds to reduce lactate build up, go to the front as soon as possible after that point or close gap (depends on pace of race), create a gap, maintain and defend gap with gradual pace build up if necessary, save something in hand for final lap and top of straight with 100m to go.
