Thanks David. Yes, it did take some organising - including a pacing team, but the planning all came together yesterday. It was close, but we just got there. We were a very happy team post race. A rare opportunity - certainly for me.
I hope to see you down here at Easter?
Cheers, Scott
Nice running guys, I head to the track on Tuesday for the first time in years, I will be running a Mile, hope it goes well so I want to run a couple more races...
