FOOTNOTES

1. There are plenty of Australian records to go for when the ACT Vets conduct more relay races, soon. Get your best team together for an ACT record attempt. Or even an Australian record!

2. Other states should have a go at these too! Now, there's a challenge.

3. Wednesday's run was for me a good start to the year's tempo runs. Voltarin, deep heat, and a long warmup, helped overcome calf cramps, and I ran a comfortable but fast BBQ Stakes in 25:45 (reverse direction) with no ill effects; maybe a bit TOO fast but I was not tired at the end, either because of improved fitness, or more likely, the cool day.
