Jake and I ran at Forbes this morning. Jake, who was meet director, was pretty tired. I was moderately tired. We did the first loop in 28:33. Actually given how we both felt, that wasn't too bad. Jake decided to walk the second loop while I ran a steady effort reaching the top in 12:30 (which surprised me to no end). Then the burden of truth was upon me and as I started back down, I calculated whether or not I could break 23 minutes without gutting myself. I decided that up tempo was fine but that pushing the pace was O U T as an option.
The key was to reach the final hump near the ramp in around 22 minutes which I did nicely. I just cruised in from there in 22:49.
The total for the day including my usual 5 minute shake down run was around 56 minutes.
Lead packs for the varsity boys and girls in yesterday's meet.
