Thriller at the Brit

Into the park for the start of another week and had down 10ks to kick things off, Decided on the normal 6k Woollahra Hill loop then the flat 4ks. Felt pretty ordinary to start with although the clock said I was moving OK as I completed the first loop in 26.12 (4.21s) Tried to pick the pace up slightly on the flatter section for the final 4ks and managed a 16.59 (4.14s) to stop the clock overall in 43.12 averaging 4.18 for the mornings work.

Lunchtime it was into town for the Swim set and another good showing for the 1 x 500, 5 x 200 and 5 x 100s on offer. The boys went out very quick for the longer first set and I was behind Cialis who was struggling a little today that meant a big gap appeared. Pushed myself up a few spots after that as the Taffy Lad and Angus took it in turns to pile the pressure on the rest of us hanging in.

Finished it off with the 5 x 100s all done around 1.30 – 1.33

Buggered now and think I need a few hours shut eye after a few sleepless nights. Last night was worth it mind where I witnessed a Thriller at the Britannia Stadium as Stoke went down 3 – 5 to Liverpool. OK we lost but we offer good value for money and plenty of ENTERTAINMENT at the home of football …………Told you the good times were returning J

Also saw POD plodding along this morning out running, think he has an Ironman this week somewhere in New Zealand? Seems to have been battling injuries of late but normally gets his training spot on when it comes to racing. So good luck to him for the coming weekend.

Cheers
