2 weeks to go

Fri am - easy 10km including first Physiocise class in Willoughby
Fri pm - easy 12km around home.
Sat Holdsworthy, went to plan ran with the lead pack until close to 4km, where I felt the pace start to slow from 3min to say 3.10 pace. Then where the hill is near the entrance and bolted away into a light headwind. Well I thought if someone was to come with me they would have to work too. No one did and then I just hung on for a 30.34. The second 5km was slower, 15.02 then 15.32.
Sun am - Buffalo Crk run, with an added loop up scribblys to delhi and back, so 33km down for 2:04.55.
Sun pm - 9km
Weekly total 213km and feeling good at the end of it.

Two weeks out from SMH and looking for a PB now with confidence. Just need to keep up the last week of momentum.

Congrats on the win mate! I'm looking forward to see what you can do at SMH as well as the day that you crack 30 for the 10. If you were on the track, against decent competition, I'd be running down to the TAB to lay the house on it!

Congratulations on the win Guz. Hope the last couple of weeks training are good for you, and you turn up the heat for the SMH.

Well done Guz. Tidy time too.
What are your plans after SMH half ? What about the Burnie ten in october - top 5 or 6 usually go 29.30 or thereabouts.

Thanks guys. Will probably focus on GCH (for PB) and the National Cross (for the win) this year. Maybe a marathon to cap off the season in Sydney, if I am still kicking by then. I will taking most of October lightly!
