Big Bertha

6.15 am, 4.5km hill circuit, Centennial Park

Sean stated that if you're racing on Saturday take it out easy and pick it up after 5 laps. I pushed it out solidly for the first 5 laps with Liz Miller and Jenny and then followed just behind Liz the final 5 laps.

Fats ran a blinder in his new stream-lined hip-hugging racing shorts. He also seems to have picked up a few fashion tips lately.

Glutes and pelvis were a bit creaky and I didn't want to run myself into the ground so I was engaged in an internal debate about how hard to push the final laps. The time was 17.31, 10 seconds off the pb so not lagging too far off the pace.

I heard about those shorts...They don't seem to make their actual owner run much faster, sadly!

Yes Fats looked lovely ;-)

Smart move to look after the pelvis... I had the same debate! There will be a tribe of us cheering on Saturday :-)

Hmmm only 10 secs off the PB and in chill-out mode too.... sounding pretty promising DJ.

Good job on tackling Big Bertha, it seems your barge arse has worked wonders on your hill form. Pity Ramsgate is flat on Saturday.
