Warm and humid at the start and didn't get any better. Expected to struggle with about 90 minutes because of the weather and the TT yesterday. Decided to run slowly to start and then see what I felt like near the end. First 10k in 40.42 which was just comfortable - felt bad in the next 5k uphill with a 21.09 5k split so then expected the large numbers to start but surprisingly at 15k seem to feel much better so picked up the pace and cruised the last 6.1km in about 23.30 for a 85.22 (4.03 minute per k pace). To say the least surprised and pleased.
100 k for the week.

Great run in tough conditions Ray. You are really smoking at the moment. Sub 3 hour marathon at Canberra is looking very good. You are a great example to all runners. It was great talking to you after the race as well. Thanks for your thoughts on the 2km intervals.
