My 7K Challenge

This morning I set myself a challenge to beat 32 minutes for my 7K circuit. I started out relly well and finised the first K in less time than usual. A good sign. I did pretty well to the 5K mark but the last 2K is mostly uphill and always hard yacka. I really have to work hard on this section and, to my dismay, it never seems to get any easier. Never-the-less I manged to trudge my way home and to my astonishment I had made it in 31:38. Yahoo!!!

Nice work Eddie. So what's the target for December ... sub 31 maybe?

Pity you weren't at Noosa. Then again I kept running into your friends and they were a pretty good substitute :-)

See ya the the Cool Night Classic.

Fantastic Eddie! I notice you smashed your previous best time. That's an excellent tempo run.

Doesn't matter if you had to trudge or not, Eddie; you did it!

Another year of running & everything else drawing to a close! Then the start of the new one & on & on we go!
