My first ever fun run. How exciting. I even entered the big boys course! Finished in about 74th place (out of 114). My only goal was to do the race in under 5min/km. I achieved that, but now thinking about it, I think i can do better. Pity it was the last race of the Joggers World Series. and i won't be around for the City to Bay.

The interesting thing of the day was the fact that the Souithern Arrows were well noticed. No one actually spoke to us in our uniforms, but we coudl hear a lot of people talking at the start as we warmed up. I think we had a bigger impression at this race amongst other long distance runner than if we had got the long distance runners to an orienteering race.

Started on a run with the Arrows from Rostrevor, pretty soon i was on my own but that was good since i didn't feel like keeping up with them. I ended up really behind the rest and found running from second falls to first falls. Lachlan found me after a while and we all ended the run together.

A bit of a quick run around my usual loop. i pushed really hard up the steep hill which nearly led to me falling over at the top. But in true aussie spirit i did not heed the temptation of falling over in the finish chute.
