another half, another pb on another HARD COURSE!....WOW I'm pretty happy!

This was a great day!
Managed to do the sydney half in 81:18 by my watch. That was a bit quicker than Lake Macquarie half a few weeks ago & that was a flat course this was pretty hilly.
I know I'll break 80min shortly.
The day was magic.
I got up at 3:30am & had some toast. Got on the trotters bus down at terrigal pub at 4:30am.
Race got started at 6:30am. I jogged to the start as a warmup & was right up the front.

Did a cycle class in the afternoon

Now I ate 3 slices of toast with honey for b'fast & coffee & a powerade
Now b'fast was at 3:30am and the next thing I ate was around 11:30am. After walking around the rocks for what I thought was for ever looking for a cafe that had tables AND served a b'fast menu we finally found a german cafe. Anyway after I got my 2 eggs, some type of german sausage 1/2 a tomato...ohhh they forgot my bread roll......I soon fixed that up...also enjoyed my $6.50 choc milkshake!!!! This food hardly touched the sides....well it missed the sides.
Had a coffee from starbucks a bit later.
Had a powerbar just before cycle
Dinner was a wambie whopper with thw works & chips......now that DID touch the sides...mmmm yummmooo.
Finished the night with a couple of beers
