Kinda pushed it at MAFC today, in part to keep the chica from lapping me. But it actually felt pretty comfortable. I have a new form thought, to drive my knees through instead of dead-leg swinging, Rex style, and that helped to pick up the pace right there. Then when chica came up past me, I said to myself "heck no" and picked it up some more to keep up and later pass. Then just kept it going. Wound up with sub-9 pace for 80 laps. Also now within range of 1000 for the year. |
