Monthly Handicap at Innabaanya
Today:
Distance: Race- 6.9 km in 32'10" at 4' 37" per km Finished 76th
Warm up - mark course 5.6 km in 58'29" at 10' 27" per km
Weather: sunny, temp 18 degrees, humidity 30%, wind calm
Week: 12.55 km
November: 490.95 km in 28/30 days at 17.5 km ave per run day
Year: Target 5000 km less ytd 443.15 km = 567.85 km to go (big ask)
Last monthly handicap of the year. Nothing to gain today, not in contention for any awards although I will hopefully around 10th in the overall points score. Actually felt Ok after yesterday's long hilly run, pushed the pace until I passed CJ then eased back to finish 76th, CJ finished 80th.
The target for the year is fading away ever so slightly, a chance maybe, but whatever happens it will be my biggest yearly total of kms ever. Two easy months after Glasshouse 100 mile in Sept have lowered the chances, but I definitely needed the rest, both physically and mentally.
Back keen to run now, just need a couple of months of sunny summer weather.

Good job on the mike yesterday. About the right distance for a long-course run :)
You can do it! A couple of double Cotter 21s will help.

So was the whole point to pass me and then ease back?!
As for me, I was surprised that I did as well as I did considering how I felt - legs were very tired.
It sounds like this coming Saturday could be quite warm.
