Jogged down with Tommy H for the 3 x 2k session that saw us start outside the Passenger Terminal and basically run up Hickson Road
finishing on the corner where the normal 1.2k reps end up.
Great day yet again and a good turnout to boot, Someone must have upset the chairman as he wasn’t hanging around today waiting for no one and took off at a million miles an hour with “Kenny & Ben way behind eating his dust.
With only 3 reps I was keen to try to push this set today and led a group out that included Slim Sammy Agnew, Mikey, Hamish, Dom and a few others, crossing in 6.59, was buggered even then but with a tail wind for the second I was keen to try to pick it up even more. Succeeded in doing so but so did every bugger as I dropped out the back slightly over the last 250 meters to record 6.56
A quick word with the chairman in the break as he told me to ‘hold the form and bring it home under 7’ and we were off again for the final rep. Just tried to stay focused and hang on to Mikey as I then run stride for stride with Lady Laura. Could see the clock ticking away with 150 to go so made a big effort for one last surge, unfortunately the clock just beat me as I pressed out with a 7.01
So with times of 6.59, 6.56, and 7.01 I can be pretty pleased with that overall, then did the longest cool down in history of HuRTS with Tom, Skippy and Mikey for over 6ks that saw nearly 14k done for the day.
Think we may have found the latest Enda/Richie High Love nest within the squad when Mikey told Slim Sammy Agnew that he looked like some athlete called Nick Symmonds, who Mikey has life sized posters up in his bedroom. Even Slim Sammy went all coy as we cooled down through the Quay when told and quickly called time on his cool down (for full photos check out the Chairman’s blog) ……Stay tuned for more J
Cheers
