State short course Cross Country 7.5ks

Out to Upjohn park in Rydalmere for 3 laps of a bit muddy in places course. Not particularly fond of running this course as it has heaps of hairpins around trees and in consequence plenty of exposed tree roots to fall over.

I didn't see Tom before the start and thought he was warming up somewhere until I came across him in the toilets in his street clothes running late. A hasty grab of his chip which upset the powers that be before the start.

We were off and I settled into some sort of slow pace around the 3 laps. Splits were 9:56, 11:04, 10:55. For a finish time of 31:55. 7th in the age group. Didn't feel too fast at all today.
