Observatory Hill (560mtre) Hill Repeats x 8

No sign of ANY of the regular crew today with only J.Worsick, Dominic, Christian and the Mermaid(Emma) in attendance that i actually knew. This is a tough session and i think the norm is 10 reps although i knew at the start i was only in for the 8.
In the absence of the Big Boys i found myself in the unusual position of leading the first couple of reps before Dom joined me for the next few along with A.N Other guy who looked pretty handy. Dom pressed ahead on the last few as i was trying hard just to keep them all around the same pace. The second half of each rep is a killer and you can feel the pace drop as you search for the finish line.
Times were down abit today- but that was to be expected after taking a week off and without a good turnout to help out and keep me company
Reps were: 2.18, 2.19, 2.20, 2.19, 2.20, 2.19, 2.21, 2.15
Realize with only 5 weeks to City to Surf that more hill work will be required if i am to have a good run on the day

Busy weekend ahead with the choice of TWO 10k runs this weekend - the Striders at Homebush on Saturday or the new Suncorp 10k around the city that many of the boys are going for.
Personally i think i will just hit the Striders race, as i am not in good form at the moment and i do have a party to attend on the Saturday evening.

Cheers
