BBQ Stakes #125...

I was on time for BBQ Stakes, having a good 6mins or so before I started off my handicap of 15:30...the weather was warmish but there was a cool breeze in places...

it felt like I was running comfortably as I tried to reel in those that started ahead of me...it seemed like a small field as the first runner to pass me passed me just before the Hindmarsh Dr underpass...I kept waiting for more to pass me but there was only one more just before heading through the gate off the hill...

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 21.9/56% (apparent temp 20.6)
start time: 12:26pm
total distance: 6.04
total time: 34:05
avg pace: 5:38
total calories: 467
avg HR: 159
TE: 4.1
recovery HR: 134/36
BPK: 896

splits: 5:33, 6:04, 5:41, 6:18, 5:01, 5:16, 0:12

I finished 5th with the clock time on 49:35 which was good enough to see me secure my second win in a nett time that was only 1:16 slower than my first win...hopefully I won't do what I did after my last win!

it was until I finished that I notice blood on my shin from a stick bite...only a little nick with my blinding speed spreading the blood to make it look worse...

so next week I get to hold the clock and the following week I expect my handicap to be about 1:45 harder (17:15)...
