Easy Day & Making Bets

Legs felt pretty tired and heavy after the past 3 days racing and training so just cruised around the park this morning for a few easy ks. Actually met up with the 'Hardmen' Crew that included PLOD and Enda standing around having a good old chat. Ended up doing a 6k hill loop with Enda (at 4.26 pace) and in the process managed to wrangle a bet out of him that POD can confirm.  Have agreed to a Head to Head over a triathlon anytime before the end of Summer, go gives him plenty of time to fire up and get his swimming back to a decent level. $50 was wagered :)
Also on the betting scale (think i may have already mentioned) I have $50 on with L.T.O, Jimmy James ( Tom's brother) on who has the fastest 10k before the end of May. Fair play to him i see he run a 2.51 Marathon on the weekend, so he must be going OK. $50 was again wagered.
But first up i have to get over our very own Richie High on Sunday out at Nepean Tri in our glorious west at Penrith, I watched Richie fly away out of sight on the run yesterday so it looks like he is starting to hit good form again, plus the fact that he has been swimming squad ALL winter and i think i may have my work cut out to to stay within 3 minutes of him.

Will be back out with the HuRTS boys tomorrow down at Rushcutters for the Pyramid session on the cards ( what its not a tempo ???? ) - will take it slightly easier mind with the race on Sunday.

Cheers

15ks for the day done.
