I think I got my picture in there once as a kid and had it on the wall for years.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13758183909765087339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1621172731232796768.post-52818645500660512782008-05-26T13:37:00.000+10:002008-05-26T13:37:00.000+10:00Top effort RS - well done and good report.

Surprised you didn't obtain a leave pass to attend the Qld 12000m XC Champs at Bald Hills as its just down the road from your place. <BR/><BR/>cheers<BR/>MMattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03170374278473716982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1621172731232796768.post-83471519151470891102008-05-26T11:11:00.000+10:002008-05-26T11:11:00.000+10:00You're right, what a sensational place to have a r...You're right, what a sensational place to have a run! The beach-side scenery is fantastic. And although they get in the way, it's nice to see families out and about in the various parks this run goes through.<BR/><BR/>Further back in the pack where I run, there's no issue of having to yell 'track'. What is disconcerting though is the early picknickers who've started to fry onions on their barbeques. I find that hard to run past!<BR/><BR/>I ran head to head with a youngster (compared to me!) of 53 who, each time I came up on his shoulder managed to say through gritted teeth "oh, it's you". But as you've noted, the hills on this course sort things out. He got well away from me going up each hill, but I picked him up easily going down. So many people apply the brakes on hills. But on the last and biggest hill, he surged and I lost him completely.<BR/><BR/>Always a great race. Friendly, not too many people ... they sure don't mess around getting the start underway, do they?Bellthorpehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11780142041461908319noreply@blogger.com
