Training Log Archive: simmo

Australian Sprint Champs at Curtin Uni, managed to concentrate all the way round, made a couple of short stops to check that I was going the right way. Probably took a couple of longer routes than necessary, but managed to sneak into 1st by 14 secs. Hopefully confidence will now return for next weekend.

Also fastest on course, so all those young M60, W50 and W55 obviously need to train a bit harder if they can't beat a half-fit pensioner.

M65A - Splits

Australian Middle Distance at Lovers Ridge. Just not fast enough and walking the hills. One bad mistake cost me maybe 2 mins, but no way I could match the winner today.

WA State Champs at Spice Brook. Lost 30 secs here and there, and 3-4 mins at 5 where I made a good route choice but lost concentration and messed up the final approach. 4 mins behind the winner, but less than a minute off 2nd. Could have taken that, as the starter wanted to send me off a minute early, but I demurred.

From Fays Bay with Virpi.

Around the island, first to Thomson for coffee, then West End. Back via the lighthouse, which we climbed, the guide knew Roy Hiller. Then to Parker Point and into Thomson again for pies at the Bakery.
