3km Time Trial
1/3/05
After resting yesterday and reading about all the fantastic efforts in Pat Carroll's group 3km TT, I decided to do one of my own. I wasn't expecting too much, considering I've done no speed work in the last month and am coming off that 51km effort on Sunday.
Therefore, I was quite pleased to run 12:12. I ran the first km in 4:00, slowed down in the second as the lactic acid kicked in to run 4:07 and brought it home in 4:04. Where were Eddie and Punter Matt to pace me when I needed them?
I can now look forward to the Striders 10km race on Saturday knowing what time to chase without the guesswork.
For those who have missed them, the mating toucans will be making their return at Homebush to try and bring me home in sub 44.

It's great to read how well you did on Sunday Horrie. It was obviously the confidence boost you needed. It must be strange to now have the 6' as a goal. No doubt you will do well and enjoy it.
