A day out at the track for Alex and I, something although I train on once a week I haven’t really experienced much in my running career. The day was very humid, and the track out in the sticks but a great opportunity to come and be part of the team. I ran the 5000m and if honest legs still tried from a heavy race season. With 18:03 to secure 1st place it was still a credible run to score some valuable points. Joking about who was going to fill the Steeple Chase position with Helen, I ultimately realised that the points were so close that it was a case of dig in. I always said no way as anyone that knows me will realise my lack of flexibility means my strides are short… I continued therefore to pivot and army roll over the barriers and still ran decent time despite the wet conditions and diving into the water champ.. as they say #takeonefortheteam.
