Fingal Bay Park Run, 8th (20:38 official). Only my 5th logged "Running, Race" since the World Vets in 2001. Early start and humidity meant I felt less than ideal, but fitness is good at the moment and I paced reasonably well, with the inevitable slow down in the middle. Settled down in 10th place early and was up to 9th after 1km. In-law Craig came past me at 2km and I thought he was gone as he got a good gap. Caught back up to him after the downhill near 3km and went past. "See you at the finish" he said, but then he came past again later. Dug in up the second last hill and this time opened up a significant gap. Turnaround at the boat ramp and dug in again up the last hill, to get into 8th. 7th wasn't too far ahead but he sensed danger and pulled away. I slowed down a bit too much near the finish (run through the line!) and nearly got caught by Craig's massive sprint from nowhere.
