ACTVAC Monthly Handicap @ Mt Taylor

made my second appearance at a monthly handicap...my first was at Deeks Forest in September last year...

very cool conditions mainly due to the wind...

started in Group 23, made a break from the others reasonably eary then got passed by a younger guy but caught him around the 5.5k mark...another bloke passed me before the big hill (didn't see him again)...Gary Hand passed me just after the big hill but i stuck pretty close to him and passed him around the 4k mark...managed to finish 12th...


the stats:
start temp/humidity: 10.0/56%
start time: 9:24am
total distance: 6.80k
total time: 34:17
avg pace: 5.02
total calories: 509
avg HR: 177
finish temp/humidity: 10.9/54%

managed a "Go Coolrunner" for Strewth...got a "Go Coolrunner" call myself & a high 5 from Griffen as he was warming down with Katie after they had completed the short run...

pretty happy with the run after yesterday's effort...

didn't hang around long as i had to get home, shower & change for cricket training...this week's focus was bowling so i got to have a good look at the three that were there...now i have a 2 week break from cricket - next week Jodie & i are doing the metrogaine and then the following week is C2S...

went home via Pete's Golf Connection to buy a couple of fairway woods to round out my set...

A testing hill for the runners and for the Garmin 305, just near the 3km mark.
