SPR Jul 2019 10:58am, 28 Jul 2019 28,807 posts	0 SPR Thanks all. Results already on PO10 and lap by lap splits to come! You get an official 3000m time split on PO10 so went through in 9:56.45 which I think is around what I went through when I ran 16:40 last year. I just felt stronger at that point so pretty much maintained pace and then was able to kick and ran 72.6 (unofficial) for the last lap. Was 17th at 3000 but finished the race in 7th, so moved through well. Maybe not ideal to pass so many as it probably costs a couple of secs when you can't pass quite straight away, but it definitely makes you feel like you're running well.

SPR Aug 2019 5:27pm, 4 Aug 2019 28,867 posts	0 SPR So earlier in the year I ran 0.07 slower than my PB in the 1500m. Today, I did exactly the same in the 800m! Couldn't make it up! 66/68 so perfect splits, just would like to take a 2-3 secs of each lap! Proper track work might be needed for the next level.
