Mona Fartlek

5km jog in the morning picking the car up from Brookvale.

Mona Fartlek at lunchtime with Ray, Tucks, Anthony, Luke, Dylan, Fats, Enda and Bill among others. Decided to really try and push the first half today to see how close to the stone gates I could get and then just hang on. Was about 15 yards short, but continued to run well finishing halfway down the Opera House (last sprint just past the gates) despite running the same route back rather than the slightly shorter route around Mrs Macquaries Chair. Ran with Tucks the whole way (he was kind enough to say he was hanging on) and Anthony who fell off towards the end. Dylan is going strong which is great news for the JPMorgan CCC.

3km warmdown for 15km altogether for the day.

I have heard that a Thales team has been entered in JPMCCC. They are looking sharp running around the base.

I presume Dylan is your 2nd male runner. Prue will run well. Who will fill the all important 2nd female position? You will need someone sharp to knock off Thales.

Mate, the base is about 300m long. Your team will be knackered before they even reach Paddo Gates.
Dylan is in low 19min form (he was ahead of Fats during Mona Fartlek yesterday). Prue will run mid-20 so it's all down to the 2nd female. Unfortunately Bianca is not well so it's either Meike or Alison. Both are in training (Meike seems to run 6km twice a day) so it's just wait and see.

My guess on the teams to look out for (in the Mixed) are UBS, McGrath Nicol and Calvary Health.
