Wednesday - Knox Masters (5)
I decided to run down to Masters tonight so i took my
new very small backpack, fuel belt and cap and off i
went. It's around 2kms to the track so it works out
quite well as a warmup. When i got there i ran with
John who was there early and did another 2kms. The
first event was a 2000m so i entered that and tried to
pace myself evenly and not go too hard. Of course
in the last lap i had another runner in my sights
about 60m in front and decided to try and catch him
\which i did at the top of the home straight. It was
then a very hard hitout and i had a 200m event next.
Fortunately there was a short break as they ran a
100m next which i didn't run in. The 200m went
well and i ended up winning in 28:71 my best time
for a while. Then the 4km which didn't feel good to
begin with but i warmed to it eventually and by my
watch came in with a 19:50. Then there was coffee,
sandwiches and cake to be had followed by a 2km run
home with quite stiff legs. I forgot to mention the
2000m time was 8:27 which being the first one i've run
is a PB!
