Canberra Times Fun Run Report

I finally committd to running a real event. Glad I did becuase the last time was when I was kid running in the Sun Fun Super Run across the Westgate bridge in Melbourne. Showing my age now.

I hooked up with Jacqui and Chris and we ended up about half way back in the pack. The wait time for the start wasn’t too bad but next year I would probably start at the back and let the crowd sort itself out first. It was a bit of pain trying to weave in and out of people for the first 2 kms.

My goal was to run under 55 based on recent training times. I went through the first 5km feeling pretty good and managing under 5min pace. I didnt have the kick left at the end I was hoping for but did manage my best 10km time since I cant remember when: 48:08

The splits

4:48, 4:51, 4:49, 4:56, 4:59, 4:51, 4:45, 4:48, 4:41, 4:37 = 48:08

HALO3 Mini Review

The game is awesome. I am a big HALO fan so there is no way I was not going to love the game. The graphics are better. The game play is better. The AI is better. The levels are bigger and better.

The only question is how will manage to rip the controls out of the kids hands.
