Saturday Afternoon
Victorian Masters State Champs
400m - last in 64.74 (best forgotten)
Had to wait around today in very warm
conditions for about 5 hours as the heats
were cancelled due to only 7 entrants.
I guess i could put it down to that for
my shocker today - i don’t know??
I never run well in the heat and the
waiting around didn’t work well either.
I felt really good in the morning when i
arrived there and probably would have
run much better had there been a heat
then and there.
I have to try and recover for the 400mH
tomorrow - we’ll see

Sunday Afternoon
Victorian Masters State Champs
400mHurdles - 1st 78s at my first attempt
at the long hurdles. I was the only runner
in my age group in the race so i collected
the Gold Medal for what it’s worth!!!
I’ll take what i can get - it was bloody
tough (thought i was going to faint at one
point).

bugger :o what were the other times like?

Well the winner ran a 55.XX - Even at my best i
would have been lucky to run 4th or 5th
