HuRTS Hickson Rd 1.2k Reps

First session back with the HuRTS boys for a long time, in fact I think the last one done was this actually session 4 weeks back. Another big crew in attendance and great to see #1 Tucks back, although in truth he seems to really be struggling at the moment and would be lucky to get in the top 10 (even Enda’s beating him), Nice also to see David ‘Inside Lane Kanser’ Kane back for his first speed session for 2014.

Bloody hot day out there and the mouth was dry even after the first rep, Manage to just hang off the back of Mikey for the first as he pulled up about 30 metres short of 1.2k on my watch, must have been at least 50 of us there and yet Mikey was the only one who was reading 1.2 at the 1.18 mark??

Managed to hold the 2^nd the rep about the same pace, but then really struggled from there on in, Could have just stopped on the 3^rd it was that bad as I saw the rest of the field miles ahead and the 4^th wasn’t much better.

Tried to rally for the final one and at least finished strong to come home in 4.09

Times were. 4.00, 4.03, 4.12, 4.11, 4.10

Again not the best of sessions but was happy just to get through it. I think those paces all still worked out at sub 3.30 pace so I should be happy enough.

A good 5k warm down with the Chairman, Russell and Mikey who was still smiling like a Cheshire cat, no….. Not because of how well his is running but more to the fact that he found $10 whilst out on the long run yesterday (check out the Chairman’s blog for details). I did say that I lost a tenner last week down at Bondi and thought Mikey would do the right thing? But I did hear that is was soon locked away in the vault and has joined the ‘First $10 he ever earned way back in 1982.

Was talking to my mate Slim Sammy Agnew the other day who had just been in hospital to fix his foot up that he broke last May, He seems in good spirits and tells me that he’s hoping to be back before to long. I was a little concerned though when he posted me a photo of himself posing after his NEW haircut.

Now Sammy has had some shockers in the past, but you may not even recognize the boy from Bromley South London with this pearler?

Check it out.

He says he's not changing it until Crystal Palace get relegated ............Looks like he's got it till May then.
