Having spent much of yesterday wondering how the Ironmen were getting on I feel positively pathetic doing "only" an 8.2km run today!
I managed to improve last years time by about 14 minutes and dipped under 1 hour but missed my 55 minute target by 3 mins. I could have run about 1 min faster if not for "traffic" on one of the steep downhill bits. I didn't feel particularly good for any of the run except the final 10mins, and even then my right shoulder became very stiff and a bit painful - weird! My left calf also cramped a bit after finishing.
This was a low-profile event, I met Naresh Kumar and Gunaselan and bumped into Ashley Lim and Nezz, but I headed off for a bike ride fairly soon after the finish. However my motivation to ride was low and I only did 12km before heading home.
Anyway, a healthy-sounding 159km if training in the last week!
Next 3 weekends are full of running - KLIM Circuit Run 3 (2h/20km)- SMART Tunnel Run (14km) - KLIM 21k!!
