Run 51:27 [3] 4.5 km (11:26 / km)
Oceania relays at Benbullen. I ran here at an Easter event several years ago and enjoyed it. Today l ran second to Philippa L-C with Debbie Dodd third. I thought l went relatively well considering the ground was terribly rough and there were many hidden holes. Knee held up well considering. I messed up 2 to 3 purely due to poor route choice - l got stuck in the plantation when l should have gone around the road. Lesson learnt, l then took the road legs wherever possible. Had l been faster in the rough tbe choice may have been otberwise.
There are two categories of people here - 18 to 25 year olds with gorgeous legs and the rest of us complaining about our ailments ..... ' l'd look that good and run fast if only l didn't have a bung knee/ hip/ foot/ archillies etc'.
