Wednesday Evening - Knox Masters (5.5kms/19.5kms)
Warmup including 3 laps at slow jogging pace then
5 x 30m high knee skipping
5 x 30m bum kicks
3 x 50m strides
2 x 90m strides
3 x single grandstand step runs
1 x Doug Orr Half Mile Hcp Venue Final in which i
finished in a disappointing 8th in 2:39). I ran the
first lap in 75 and just couldn't find anything from
200m i usually do.
Around 300m of slow jogging between events and
then i started off in the 5km race but pulled out
after about 2.5kms as i was just getting slower and
slower with each lap. Called it quits after that.
Total distance about 5.5kms
A disappointing night really! I thought i would do
better in the half mile and in the end i could do no
better this year than a 2:38 which came in heat 3 two
weeks ago. I'm just not sure where i'm at with my
running at the moment. Recent best performances have
been in sprints, perhaps that's where my strength is.

..and when in a few days time you run well again, you'll feel REAL good. Let's hope you do.
