ACT Masters Track 3000m ; 1500m Time Trial 4:44.02
Perfect conditions for ACT Masters Track. Weather warm, no wind at 7:30pm, sun set, under lights. Prior to the 3000m there was a 1500m and 4 x 800m relay. It was a fun night for all with some relay records being set.
In the 3000m Alistair won from Steve who both posted their best times of the season. I ran a 1500m time trial within the 3000m but stuffed the timing. After stopping after a fast first 100m I quickly reset the Garmin, found satellite and caught back up to the 3000m leaders near the real 1500m start line. I basically did an 1800m time trial only getting time for the final 1500m. Splits (500m): 1:31,1:37,1:35 = 4:44.02 . Not the fast time I was looking for but still a great training run. I ran on to complete 3000m in 11 minutes, watching Alistair and Steve race up ahead.
Rain, lots of it, is coming for a week or so. I'll get some running done when I can, I can't plan for it.
