NSW Long Championships, 3rd. Not as good physically as yesterday - back wasn't brilliant, particularly in the first half, and generally found it a bit of a slog with all the fallen timber (although I wasn't exactly alone in that respect). Pretty much clean, although at my pace I would want to have been. Anthony Nolan had a very good run and I don't think I would have beaten him even with a much better performance. Steve did 46 (and of the W45s on the same course, Jo did 53, although I did finish ahead of Belinda and Tracy).
It was a long haul back, of which the first four hours back to the Hume were as much of a slog as the course, with potholes in considerable abundance (which didn't come as any great surprise). The NSW government will no doubt throw money at this - it's an election year, after all - but I can't imagine workers (or equipment) will be any easier to find for this than they are for anything else in regional Australia at the moment.
