Long Run 20km incl European Masters Athletics One Mile Challenge support
Sunday morning 20km run in lieu of cancelled ACT Masters XC handicap. It was pouring rain most of the morning, unsafe for running a race on slippery clay based trails.
I ran through the arboretum to Stromlo to support Helen (W60)in her Open European Masters Athletics One Mile Challenge attempt. We used the bitumen criterium track instead of the grass XC circuit which was waterlogged. Splits (500m + 109.34m): 2:08.48,2:14.37,2:11.54,28.23 = 7:02.64 (4:23/km). Her time was 4 seconds faster than her previous best attempt. Helen was hoping for a sub-7 minute run. There are still 5 days left for Helen to try again. It's unlikely due to other activities.
