Training at Parliament House last night: Clint, Cathy & I ran 8k early, For the main session Andrew, Andy, Clint, Craig, me, Jen, Marilyn, Mick C, Rae, Ruth, Sarah-Jayne & Warrick ran relays along the 200m straight in balanced teams of three for twenty minutes. We ran on the flat. Then for variety we did short hills sprints and in some cases gecko impersonations, for ten minutes to finish off. We seemed to be out of the breeze, that and the bright lights helped us feel comfortable. My favourite was going downhill, backwards.
