...a new pb!

well not really-that is misleading.
i actually found out what my pb when i was a junior for my 1500 was.i thought previously 5.36(but that was when i was 11) (my 1500s were never as good as my 800's) When i was 12(+3months) i officially ran 5.28.0 so that is my goal time to beat this year
i came across my earlier aths stuff-including a picture of me on the front page of the sun when i won the vic u10 cross country against 300 other people.....lol, that is a BIG race(and i was tiny tiny tiny).... stu is going to take a few of my state medals to show his junior burgers, funny that the VPSSA medals have not changed in 20 years

aaaaaagg and found out that i had actually run one season as an u13 for sandringham aths club(seniors)-i had forgotten-dont think i ever turned up to training. i wouldve done some solo training(mum used to have me doing an 800m time trial twice a week, that was the sum total of my training-never more)-ah now why did i quit back then? it is a regret of mine.

training tonight-stu altered the session somewhat to 40ish mins with 6x2min surges... i mucked up the first two reps d'oh-here they are min/km, not flat out-stu asked me to hold back a few times
1. mucked up the garmin
2. mucked up the garmin
3. 4:28 min/km
4. 4:14min
5. 4:15 min/km
6. 4:09 min/km
7. 4:20 min/km
8. 4:00min/km stu said to go as fast as we wanted, had no more than this in the legs though on this one- it wasnt a full shuffle recovery, we were joggin in between for the first 4-5reps. overall including shuffle was 5:20pace

so 42min, 8kms and for the first time since ballarat, i felt good. legs started to feel springy. i think i will race well this weekend. takes me a WHOLE lot longer than the spring chickens to recover. and tonights session did not feel very hard either- i worked, but couldve gone faster(except for the last one)
-ewen, you can buy me that beer you owe me from our summer comp when i take our boys on camp to the AIS!!!!
-ajh, when is the 5-er? and what is your goal time?
