Running 1:03:25 [3] 12.46 km (5:05 / km) +340m 4:29 / km
shoes: Salomon Speed Cross 3
Traralgon Harriers Springfield XC- 8km
Convinced Kathryn to go for a run but since she wasn't that keen she let me choose the leaving time, based on my flawed driving time and we got there with about 5mins before the start. None of the better guys turned up so it was Greg, Ben Bailey and myself off the front as I tried to take it pretty steady. Greg pulled out a big lead by 2km but he was flying on the downhills and started to fade uphills. Basically he was so weak minded that by half way he'd given up. At the one lap turn around I moved into the lead and tried not to tire too badly for the 2nd half. Ended up winning by about 1min so that was pretty surprising. This course probably suits me better than any running course around. Lots of weaving on small trail and some really tough hills. Good to blow a few cobwebs out. Did a long cool down and was shattered all arvo.
