Long workout this morning.  4 mile warm up, then 2,400 meters on the grass, and then 6 x 400 meter relay with 150 meter jog as a recovery, and then jog back to the annex and onto the gym.  I ran 9:16 last time we did this, and wanted to get close to 9:00.  I ended up with 9:13, and was initially felt a little disappointed by the time.  However, I doscovered that most people were 10-15 second slower than last time.  I also had 1.54 miles on the Garmin so probably very close to 9:00 for 2,400 meters.

Mt Bonnell this morning.  It was a touch cooler this morning...a mere 74 degrees at the start ;o).  I felt good all run apart from the last couple of miles.  That's when the tiredness set in.  However, didn't go to pieces, and kept pushing until the end!
