Good run starting from Clontarf Reserve through 4, 2, 30 then an early slog up the hill to 27 and 21. Really picked up the pace around the top part of the course running 3.45 min/k’s through 16, 12, 14, 25, 17, 23, 13, 24, 11. Then the bush bits started through 11, 20, 22, 19, 26, 9, 28. Was supposed to run up the track to 7 but couldn’t find it so aborted and ran up the hill to do a small loop through 15, 3, 18, 10, 1 and 5. Got the win 20 points ahead of Steve R. Pushed a little harder today as the overall battle between Steve and I is getting very close. With 1 race left it’s 13-12 to me but if he wins next week he wins on a countback. His 99 beats my four 98’s. I’ve really enjoyed our competition this year.
