Six Inch #3
About time I updated this blog.
I thought I'd share a few thoughts abouts Six Inch back in December.
I started off running with Colin Francis the plan was to run comfortably and if feeling good make a bit of a dash late. Also if I could summon some strength on the hills I might push ahead at Oakley's Dam.
As the downhills started Colin was looking a little quicker and had cleared out heading into Oakley Dam. Unfortunately he missed a turn and was just behind me as we ran past a snake near the foot of the hill. We stayed together again until the top of the hill and Colin pulled ahead again. I kept him in sight and was running well until Marrinup.
Shortly after Marrinup I blew up completely and even had to throw in some walk breaks during the last 5K.
Finished starving hungry and ran to the shop for a couple of sausage rolls and a cherry ripe.
Time 3.56. Colin won in 3.46. We nearly cracked double figures with 9 runners finishing!

I'll say!
Colin wrote a similiar description of 6inch#3 which is in the current WAMC newsletter which I got via snailmail the other day.
