Another 10.5km run - getting there

18/5/06

Felt a lot better today and ran a lot smoother. I was able to run it at the same pace as my easy runs leading into Banana Coast. After some concerns expressed by Belinda and Gnome, I had doubts about my ability to hold the 100 minute pace for the Half on Sunday. So I emailed the organisers and raised my concerns. The result of that email is that I am now running 2 Hour pacing duties with the Gnome. So thanks Ray and Spud for your offers to help get me to the finish in 100 minutes but I have realised that the recovery will be better served by taking it easy and strolling it in 2 Hours.

"Strolling it in 2 hours"!! Couldn't stretch it to a crawl in 2.5 hours could you, Horrie??!!
 
I'm pleased to hear that you are being kind to yourself Horrie. Most of all, enjoy yourself!

(Give my love to Belinda)
 
Good to see you get to cruise around a bit slower mate.
 
That's the best news I've heard in a while. I know that you could have done it, but at what cost? It'll be a fun day back on the 120 ferry :-)

Have fun out there Horrie!
 
Good decision mate - all the longer for DSA to get exposure!!!

Look forward to seeing you on Sunday - have got some running gear for Tim too ;-)
