Last hard hit out...

yippee, back under 22:30 and Jodie made a welcome return to the sub 30:00 club...cool conditions, with a light drizzle at the start which disappeared during the run, no wind...

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 7.8/73%
start time: 12:32pm
total distance: 5.03k
total time: 22:24
avg pace: 4:27
total calories: 375
avg HR: 170
finish temp/humidity: 8.4/74%

1k splits: 4:20, 4:28, 4:34, 4:29, 4:26

a minor detour at the top of the finish stretch due to work near the BBQ shelter/playground...

Demetrios started IN FRONT of me off 13:45...what's with that?? (although i notice he ran 26:35 last week after posting times in the 21:XX range in the pointscore, perhaps after an easier handicap for the next pointscore series??!)...nearly caught him but he accelerated away...held off speedygeoff at the end (i heard him coming so put my foot down!)...FlashDuck had a tough time of it but made it through (time unknown)...

Peter the PRB was a surprise visitor holding the watch...good to see him out and about after his (first) operation for cancer of the bladder...

****************************************

one very easy run to go, a game of golf then i'm on the plane at 5pm tomorrow to the GC...i'm really looking forward to it, especially the chance to meet a whole bunch of fellow CRs...

a complete race report will be supplied on Monday...

now if only that dog hadn't held me up for 5 seconds in the first km .... that's twice in a row allrounder has been speedier than I.
