Green X Day 1 US Champs - Splits

Event: US Individual Champs 2009
 

Model event before US Champs. I got lucky and was finished just before the hard rains started. Not to much trouble with the terrain, made a few mistakes but was able to relocate without losing a lot of time. Might do ok tomorrow.

Splits: 4:57, 3:34, 3:04, 7:47, 3:48, 2:32, 7:20, 1:34, 2:58, 5:35, 6:41, 3:05, 3:50, 3:15, 6:28

At Ryders Rounds with Bev. 7:30-9:30pm

PVTC Hour Walk. Wakefield HS. 9am. Unlike previous years, I have not done a bit of racewalking practice in preparation for this. Still went with the same goal in getting in 10k in the hour. Close but could not pull it off, kept trying to pick up the pace in the 2nd half but only managed to maintain the same speed. First by over 800m but was 500m less than last year. This is a postal event so I was competing against people from all over the country not just those on the track today. The drop from last year will probably be a significant drop in overall placing. In last years results I was around 20th and 2nd in M45-49. 1600m splits: 9:48.7, 9:38.0, 943.4, 9:41.9, 9:49.0, 9:43.8. Needed 9:36 average to get 10k.

Actually I did do some training. I warmed up for 800m before the race.

Took Iolanthe back to school then walked with Bev in the evening.
