Sunday....bay to bay and a PW!

Well a personal worst for me today, but still pretty happy. Picked Alan, Jenny & some other guy up at the finish and drove to WoyWoy. Got a great warmup in doing about 4.5km. Legs & the injury I've had felt great. No pain anywhere. Started thinking I might do a fast time. The start was pretty quick and I just sat on a comfortable pace for the first couple of km's. Was running with Jess (who ended up winning the female) until 4km. Thats when I started to have trouble with my asthma.
By 6km I was on struggle street but was able to still hold a decent pace. Got to 8km and my injury was just starting to flare up but it wasn't too bad. Wasn't wearing a watch so didn't know how I was going time wise.
Got to the 10k & heard 38:15 and knew I was going pretty crap then. I wanted to go through in about 37:20.
Ended up finishing in 46:10. Thats my worst time by 7sec. My best was in 2006 when I did 44:10. I'll get that next yr.

After the race I ran back to get my car.

Still happy with the day.
Got about 29km done all up
