Scott McMillan : Endurance Junky

Back racing. Started of with a very hilly 10k in mission, I was doing this as a training run so I did no push myself to hard. It was my first race since November 5, 2005, so I am by no means mentally ready to “race”. It turned out to be fun though most of the race I was out front with another runner until about the ~8.5k mark where there was one last major hill, I decided this is less than a VFAC long interval lets step up a gear and see what happens, I did and managed to pull ahead finishing at 37:24. Another VFAC runner won the 1/2 marathon so it was a good day for the club runners. Tara also raced and managed to finish 8th out of 123 women runners in the 5k and won a silver medal in her age category,so that was very good for her. She also took over a minute off her last 5k and this was a hilly course! Next week she runs the VFAC 5k which is flat she should improve even more.
