Big crowd today including Tucks, Fast Charlie, Andy, Binfield Motors, MC, Ray, Cradock, Pete W, Todd and dozens others. Even Durante popped by to say hello before attacking the workout playground with the men with their shirts off. The reminiscence of old times continued when passing by Kanser twice whilst doing the session. Second time he appeared to be going faster than me.
Set off too quick running with Fast Charlie just behind Andy and BM. Ray, the Judge and Tucks were further in front. Cradock then joined Andy, Ray and BM and they started pulling ahead during the second 10mins. I was then all alone, as usual. Turned on 23.5mins about 100m behind that group and realised I was going to struggle to get home. Legs were still heavy from Sunday. They all came past exactly on 30mins around Circular Quay. I continued on OK until Mrs Macquarie's Chair (when Tucks came past) and from there I struggled up the hills, hitting 45mins at exactly the same spot as doing Mona Fartlek last week (although it took me 10:25 to get there this time).
As Cradock pointed out after, it's all about getting the kms in the legs at the moment and just biding my time. Another solid session nonetheless.

Cheers Nic - appreciate your views. You're a bit of a hero to the squad, so you can be sure they'll be taken on board. Even after the whole Cathy stuff.
