More 1k Reps in the Park.

Stayed in the park again after work and caught up with Sharonne and punched out 6 x 1k reps, Bit windy and after another busy weekend just gone it was yet another tough one to get through.
Flat lap to warm up with then it was into the wind on the way out for the first rep coming in on 3.26, then got the tailwind which was to mean all the even laps were about 4-5 seconds quicker. Felt as it I was battling away but the times were all pretty honest for the day.
Times were: 3.26, 3.22, 3.25, 3.22, 3.26, 3.19
2ks cool down and 12 for the morning overall.

Congrats once again to HuRTS #1 Andrew ‘Tucks’ Tuckey on his fine achievement on the weekend in the 240ks run/walk/sleep event to Kosciusko, not only winning but smashing the course record by nearly 2 hours to finish in 24hr.33 mins – Unbelievable.  Happy to report that his travel pillow came in handy as well…………. Not for him, but his crew member James ‘Taffy’ Matthews, who used it for about 17 hours of the 24
Closer to home (and far more important) was the Beer Mile down at Rushcutters, Race favorites let the punters down big time with Quentin, C.T. Macca and Tom not even on the podium. Well done to ‘Muscles’ Jono on taking out the title, with Champagne and ‘Allo Allo’ Renaud 2nd & 3rd. Tommy  Highnam had to produce a stunning 60 second final 400m lap to save face and avoided being ‘Chicked by Zoe, and rumor was that his final beer had gone warm by the time he had finally emptied the contents of it ……….Shameful.


Tucks after his race with travel pillow , and reflects on another successful year and was keen to point out to Barts, Tom and C.T just who is #1

Cheers
