| Actvac Track 5km 1638 Splits: 322,320,318,322,314
Nursing a tight hip flexor and hamstring from the half, so just a play to win. Hugh gratefully dragged me through 3km in 1001 with even splits, slowed to 83 sec laps with 4 laps remaining. I took over with a 72, then cruise home without kick.
Last track for the year. Maybe the most track I have ever done since 20 yo. Looking forward to next season already. |

| Useless split info
Some splits from various marathons and half marathons over the years
Just put it all together for reference. The Rottnest and Weston Creek splits are up there somewhere.
Just looking at the splits doesn't give me much confidence for a PB in 5 weeks, so looks like a low 230s is best as I can hope for.
I was in 5k/15:00 shape in early 1992, ran two 1540s a week before the 2:29, but had a shocking run with thigh tear.
This time in very high 15s shape to low 16s. A better indication on Thursday night in my first 5k track since November.
Haille G proved the value of being quick over 5/10k, then converting that speed up the line. That's what I've been working on this year. Maybe I should have done some lactate intervals or more km's. Still some time yet to work on a few things, but maybe I've got to look ahead to October for that elusive PB. Time will tell.
