Week 5 - 6 Mile Saturday

This week we moved from Thursday night to Saturday morning in an attempt to beat the heat.  Despite the 7.00am start, it was still muggy and hot.   About half the group made it (Garfields v non-Garfields).  Tom won the wet t-shirt competition and everyone was in awe of Doug Barnes calves (that is a really odd thing to type...).

That said, congratulations to those who made it out of bed - everyone ran well in what were grueling conditions.

Afterwards we stretched and then some of us undid the good work by going to Paul's for breakfast.


Anyway - notes for this week...
