After a massive weekend spent in Brisbane watching the Lions (more to come on that later) i oohed and aahed all day deciding if i was going to head down to E.S Marks for the monthly Time Trial that Enda's new coach for Berlin Angry Boy Clyde had put the call out for.
Despite feeling like Rat $h!te i ventured down and met Enda,Hardman J.C as well as Chairman Tommy H who had also graced us with his presence along with old time BRAT member Tony (I can talk under water) Golden.
With the Chairman on fire flying away from us early it seemed we were all running solo as Enda didn't take long to put daylight into yours truly. Managed to come through 2ks in 7 minutes but felt i really struggled from here on in. Only managed to hold a 3.45 pace for the remaining 3ks crossing the line for a 18.18 finishing time.
My splits were (approx) 3.24, 3.36, 3.44, 3.47, 3.43
Not great by any means but faster then last months 18.55 so I'll take that especially on the back of the weekends shenanigans.
As mentioned Tom run very well, as did Enda who also improved by over a minute on his last effort and J.C is shaping up for a good Gold Coast Marathon run finishing some 30(?) seconds ahead of me.
Hopefully looking ahead i can dip under the 18 minute mark come the next T/T that is on the end of July with a good 4 week block of training to come.
Good run Timmy.
