Headed on down to Rushcutters to join the boys with near perfect conditions, a lot cooler, with a slight drizzle on a lovely surface made for some great running from the gang. Session was 8 x 800s and with Tucks leading the way on the first rep I sat in closely, followed in the first group with Mikey, Razor, Toddie & Skippy Heyden (what were those shorts he was wearing about though?) with Muzza and Barts joining in after the 3rd rep.
First rep as normal is always too fast as I crossed with a 2.33, Then had Mikey complaining about the pace although in truth it was too fast for me as all I wanted to achieve today was to knock them all out sub 2.40 (3.20 pace). Slightly slower on the 2nd but seemed to get it pretty right after that even if it did mean I was bringing up the rear on each rep.
Times for the 8 reps were as follows. 2.33, 2.36, 2.38, 2.39, 2.39, 2.40, 2.38, 2.34
Happy with that to be honest and probably best I’ve felt this year, Mikey continues to run well, apart from the first rep was always a couple of seconds ahead on each, Muz was flying (that lad has talent), Barts was just ahead of me cruising, and Tucks looked pretty consistent for each. Not sure what Chairman Tommy H was playing at in the 2nd group? Pussing around with the likes of the Jock man, and Rene & Elle just pushing the odd 200??
Andy 'Skippy' Heydens new shorts that he rocked up to Rushcutters in?
