PCRG - 3k TT
With the physio instructing me to avoid speed work for two weeks I headed off to the monthly TT planning to help out if Pat needed me to, otherwise just to run around 5 minute pace.
There were plenty of volunteers to marshall so just before we took off on the 3k I checked around to see if anyone was after company for 15 minutes. Kerryn said she was. That was it, the poor girl got stuck with me nagging her all the way :-)
We got to the turnaround in 7:28 but the second 1500m took its toll. Still, Kerryn kicked it in the guts with a few hundred metres to go and we finished in 15:13, a massive 16 second PB for her! Anna was hot on our tails and also threw in a very fast finish to cross the line with us.
There were some great results. My usual playmates came in between 12:10 and 12:20, except for Emil who ran 11:35. I was only just seconds behind him in the 1k reps last week, obviously he was bludging ;-) Workmate Tom put in a huge effort in his first TT - goal was sub 13, he did 12:24!

I just love the photos on your blog but you are not in this one! Oh no!
Never mind, all Queensland runners look great.
Must have an evil twin ;-)
Your twin's feet are much closer to the ground than yours get.
It is you!
Sorry! Never seen you jogging until now.
Not even in the 50k.
If you weren't such a good person I could have said that, that is a photo of "Tom , Dick and Clairie"
But of course you are and I won't.
Nice strategy - the nag approach to coaxing PB's...
oh yeah, the Tesso nag...as a recipient, i have to say it's the most pleasant nag one could ever get. C'mon, put some Leyton into it Tess! ;-)
Awwwwgh Man!
Tess, more injuries!
What can i say?

The skirt looks good :) Tom has me seeing green.
