Practise for the Tour - Race 2

5.8 miles. Practice for the Tour - Race 2. Spotts Park. 2.85 miles, 25:49. splits, Out 1, 6:40; Back 1, 6:12; Out 2, 6:38; Back 2, 6:04

Warm up on the short side. This is the one with plenty of hills as traverse around the bowl of the park. A few more trips to the top for variety this time. So plan was to try and not blow up on first loop. Hills under control and work on flat and downhill. Started moving through field abit. Many were taking me on the up-hill - but finally got them. Since short race knew to keep it going at end. Fortunately again had some energy to do this. Of course limited alot by breathing. Having done this course so many times, and with weather fairly cool - a great result. Wow - eben negative splits! A bit fast at end with downhill finish - feeling lightheaded and sick for a minute or so. Warm down OK.
