Wet Rushcutters 400s

With a very wet and generally miserable day in Sydney coupled with two other HuRTS sessions going on elsewhere it was a very small turnout down at Rushcutters for the 10 x 400m rolling every 2 mins.
With only Tom, Bartles and Pete Walker in attendance i was struggling to hold on to Pete on the 1st rep and only came in on 74. Settled then on the next, even if it was a lot faster and basically held the remaining very even paced.
It was interesting for each rep that i would take it out strong and despite holding the pace both Bartles and Tom would come past me at about the same point (280m ) every time and finish a couple of seconds ahead , with Pete about the same behind me.
Rep times were;
74, 70, 71, 70, 71, 70, 70, 70, 71, 66
Got the customary abuse after the final one about being a 'Burglar' and 'Sandbagging' after my 66 - but i thought i was bloody working pretty hard all through the session as the above times will prove. Good session for me this one and very happy with that especially after 3 solid days back to back after the SMH on Sunday.
Will have a rest day tomorrow running wise and try to fit my swim in at some stage before we venture into town to collect our winning drinks care of the Irish lads, then going on to the Striders presentation down at Darling Harbour, lets just hope our table is better behaved this year after certain peoples performance last year, and that Davie Kanser doesn't embarrass the team and go all 'Star Struck' when he sees guest speaker Pat Farmer like he did 3 years back with 'Deek' :)
Cheers
