Long tired Sunday




28km over Spit Junction, North Head long route. Just churned the legs over after yesterday's race and a couple of bottles of decent red last night. Felt fine until the last 30 minutes when I really struggled. 2:06:22. Took a split over the North Head final 2km just to see what pace I take these long runs and clocked 8:35. That's on flattish road so the average pace will be slower.




Feeling knackered now. I'm off for a lie-down.




Here are a couple of photo's taken by Vat from yesterday's race. The first is in the glory moments at about 4km and the second in the home straight....

Great to see 2 Striders jostling the leaders during a race. Didn't I say you had the goods to win it. Close for 5th.

Great photos Tom. You look very good in the first photo at 4km. However, you have your "scared rabbit" look in the photo at the end! You weren't that worried about finishing in 5th place were you ?!!
