Picked up a nemesis on shoulder at about 1.5k he just beat me in the finish but made us both push a lot harder in the mid section, so was all good.

I think that'll translate into a sub-20 in a not-so-offroad 5k. I'm normally 30 secs quicker at Bushy than Wimbledon. It's always nice to have someone to race in a race. I am a little kinder on the soul than a certain soul stealer :o) How did the intervals go today SOD?

I remember the days (about March this year) when sub-25 would have killed me so ...feeling good A few more weeks of intervals and I'll be ready to have a crack at a PB in December. Any one racing this weekend?
