And it's goodnight from him.


Thursday AM.

3.7ks swim down at PAP, starting to get through these sessions slightly easier despite the higher mileage

PM. Down to Rushcutters Oval for 10  x 400s , good crowd and happy to roll around in 73-74 for each just sitting behind Enda and finished with a 70 for the day.

 

Friday. Time Trial time at the A.B.C and despite Crossy Lad giving it large ones for about 4 weeks with some super training it was ‘Desperate’ Dan that took the ‘Duck’ although the handicapper got it miles off – expected time of 17 minutes yet he starts first then swims 15.24 ? ... what’s going on there?

I’m happy to finish 2nd in 16.22 for a PB – The extra Thursday swims must be paying off.

 

Sad news overnight with the passing of another of my favourites from back home in Ronnie Corbett. Grew up with the Two Ronnie’s and what legends both were. We are losing far too many of the old timers and sadly we’ll never see the likes again.
RIP . Ronnie Corbett.

 
Tomorrow its out to Lane Cove for the 3rd Striders race, Confidence was shot after the first , missed the 2nd so will be out to at least record a half decent time. All bets are aimed for Canberra next week , and only have one riding tomorrow , that’s with the Taffy Lad who has rorted me for a 90 second start and this is after he beat me off scratch last time and he’s loads stronger now.... Go figure.

 

Big weekend on the cards, Massive Irish wedding tomorrow arvo means NO Sunday long run for me this week. In the Premiership Stoke entertain the Sheep Sh@gger$ from Swansea. Bit of a nothing game in my eyes but still expect the Potters to win.

Timmy’s Tip. Stoke 2 v Swansea 1

 

Have a great weekend

Train well and stay safe

Cheers
