She blew them away after 3k
Running and winning her first Fun Run, Cookie today averaged 4:48k for a 5.5k course at the Acton Ferry Terminal this morning, a quantum improvement in pace from previous races. It was the ATO sports carnival's 6k "Fun Run", albeit with some serious runners. A comfortable 5th or 6th at 1k, up on the shoulders of the leader at 2k, Cookie was the only one to maintain the effort in the 2nd half of the race and blew her opposition away. A great day for athlete and coach!
