Wednesday Evening - Knox Masters.
Warmup 2.4km slow jogging (laps) pace.
1 x Half Mile Hcp starting off 1:01 and
finishing 13th in an actual 2:45 (poor).
During the run i tried a different tactic than
usual. I put in a sharp sprint from the 500
to about the 300 hoping that i would then
be able to cruise the next 150 or so and
then kick again. Alas there was nothing
left in the tank and i compounded over the
last 100 and got swamped by the kickers.
I really should have known but i wanted to
try something other than the usual sit and
sprint. Around 10mins later i competed in
a 3 x 400m relay as the last runner and did
a reasonable job in running 68s with us
coming in less than two seconds behind
the winner who ran his leg in around 61s.
Sometime later i continued to run slow laps
as a cooldown to end up with a total for
the night of just over 5.5km's.
