Still progressing well towards the 70+ records targets. At the track last night:
2 x 400m, 3 x 1km, 2 x400m (60)
88, 86, 3:43, 3:40, 3:36, 82, 79 another solid session. Scar tissue around the ankle still restricting movement.
Shoes still performing well and no wear on the soles :-)

Managed to grab six State and one Australian record in my current age group - I was hoping for more but with only five months left I'm having to now look at the 70+ age group. Still not lowering my standards though! Looking for best-possible times regardless of what's on paper :-)

14 years ago today and still hanging in there - with the 3,000m and 10,000m - lost the mile and possibly the 1500m but that's okay - records are there to break :-)
