Well with MC away, the next level of dominant males were trying to exert their influence today. Tom decided we would do a 5x800 followed by a 3km warm down. Young Timmy had set out an 880m course a Rushcutters and very kindly provided a topological breakdown before we headed off. A big group out today given it is school holidays and so close to Easter including Adam, Paul, Jit, Tom, Timmy, Paul, Erika, Ant, Laura, Renee, Tucks, Ray and a host of other faces. The 800s felt pretty ordinary and was behind Adam, Ant and Erika on all the laps but still pretty happy with roughly 3.36-3.38 pace for all 5. Then it was a big debate between Timmy and Tom to decide the 3km temp course. Once that had been settled, we headed off in the 4 min pace group and felt great the whole way round - average pace of 3.54 although it was slightly short at 2.87. Decent speed set with about 13kms all up including the run up and back.
Stats for today are at http://connect.garmin.com/activity/481458563 for the 800's and http://connect.garmin.com/activity/481458549 for the 3km.
Hoping to get a long one in over the weekend
