It's all in two's, too hot, too far, too late, two similar days. At least I did a bit but not much. Both days ran from work to home for lunch. Drove the car back to Pine Is. Parked at the main beach area, went for a short run, quick swim, and then back to work.
Last night, Wednesday, we had the sub committee meeting to review the monthly handicap. All going well until I looked at the long course new group changes. It all happened in twos. Two went forward 1 group, CJ and Ewen, 1 stayed the same, Strewth and 1 went back two groups, me.
Certainly will need to lift my game to be able to kick any one's backside next month. My only saviour is the hilly start, hopefully a nice warm day to slow the front markers, or everyone gets lost.
