New Year but the North Shore Mass exodus continues as yet another
NOTB boy in Todd Neal joins our talented and friendly crew for the Sunday long
run, Girls back out with Laura continuing her comeback, Elle feeling revitalised
since she come south, and Jac who unfortunately was feeling the effects of
perhaps one too many Xmas social functions.
Pace was pretty good this morning after my New Years email
about it being too fast to start as a decent group of around 18 made our way
through the waiting members at the nearby cricket ground for the first 6k loop.
Back to the cafe working around 4.40 pace as we picked up the late arrivals for
the morning. Pace quickened slightly as I enjoyed conversation with Laura and
the Prince (Ho) and the big news was to come from C.T that he has started a NEW
blog (Told Hoey that his will now struggle to get in the Top 5) Took in the Woollahra
hill again within the 10k loop and was happy to come in holding 4.36s .
With 16k done I was then looking for help from either Hoey,
The Leech or Razor Wareham to help run a flat loop at 4 min/ks but The Leech
and Ho weren’t interested and Razor was too busy popping in and out of the trees
for me to get his attention so I was forced to go solo to finish the morning.
Happy therefore to complete the lap in a time of 14.40 at 3.59 average.
20ks all up in a time of 90.10
Enjoyed a coffee and a chat post run with The Leech, Jeet
and Laura as we were left wondering who may be the next NOTB member to fly the
nest and join us next Sunday ??
Afternoon beers will be consumed down at the SCG where I’ll
take in a little cricket, although the Windies boys have big problems and don’t’
offer much so it could just be a few hours spent in the members bar for the
arvo.
Rest day tomorrow although do need to get my swimming back
in order after a 10 day break, Will get back out on Tuesday for another speed
run set.
Only the 3rd day in the New Year but I’ve already
been getting requests for certain photos of HuRTS members, Can’t honestly
believe there are still people that haven’t seen it but as I aim to please
...... here we go again J
Guess Who?
Cheers
