Training Log Archive: robw

Started the long run with the group at hackett. I was pushing max but after 10min the pram got a flat so i headed back to the car where i thought i had a repair kit in my bag but i'd taken it out so i just pumped up the tyre hard and headed out again till it went flat then pumped it up again to get back. Beautiful morning for running.

ACT XC club showdown with Grant. We both realised the xc was on after independently reading Blairs log and decided to give it a crack, once i found out Grant was doing it the pressure was on esp after he started sledging me via sms in the leadup. I didn't really have a tactic before the start but grant pretty quickly pulled out a lead and from then on my plan was to minimise the damage and hope Grant cracked on the last hill. He didn't and i never got near him. Anyway i was pretty happy with my run, 11.16 on the first lap and 11.13 on the second lap. 1.35 slower than last time i ran this course in 2001. Maybe we'll have round 2 next week... Grant??

Ran round the lake at lunchtime, did a bit of fartlek, 10 x 70sec/20sec, seemed to go on forever...

Cockies training, great fun training round black mtn and aranda hill. Took it pretty easy after the early morning watching the champions leauge. Ran to work after.

Ran home from work through aranda and then blackie, took it pretty easy but it always seems to take 45min no matter which way or how fast you run.

Nearly better so went for a very easy jog round the lake at lunchtime. Nice to be out in the sun.
