Sri Chinmoy Canberra Day 10k...

I awoke to a lightning show followed by rain...I ummed and ahhed about running as I fed the beasties and loaded my golf gear into my car...in the end I left home at 7:30am and the rain had stopped by the top I left Kambah...

the run itself started late as we had to wait for marshalls to be in place and for Lachlan Lewis to register!

I had no real aim other than to go under 55, maybe 50 if my back didn't give me any grief...!

in the end I snuck under 50 with a reasonably consistent (for me) run (and no back problems) and then had to shoot off to make golf on time...

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 16.2/83% (apparent temp same)
start time: 8:10am
total distance: 10.00
total time: 49:53
avg pace: 4:59

41st out of 99, 6th female out of 35, 6th U50 out of 25...

this is the first time I've run the Canberra Day version having run the Labour Day version three times ('05, '08 & '16)...

golf was not bad considering I haven't played since January...31pts with the highlight a birdie on the 3rd...

then I just chillaxed for the rest of the day :)
