_andy Tired legs from yesterday.  That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. Kinross Road Runners 5:32 5:33 5:30 5:48 67.66
Baza Could be a bit ambitous, but given I've ran 4:50 for a 1500 just lately I'm going to give it a go....watch this space. Would be up for a 400 too :-| Carnegie Harriers 5:04 5:04 5:10 5:04 75.27
bedlam_g Felt much quicker than I thought would with the Heb 3 still in my legs.  Led for 3 laps with Magoo and Bazza tucked in behind me.  Probably cost everyone a better time with my 1.23 3rd lap but recovered for a strong 4th and 3rd place.

Dave_K Great day at Stirling. Met loads of Fetchies. Predicted 6:15 and ran 6:15. Chased Big Al round the final lap but couldn't catch him. Looking to break the 6 min barrier next time :-) Unaffiliated 6:15 6:15 6:15 6:15 65.12

Dvorak Running after a nightshift.  Like a weird experiment on myself.  Update:  personally, a sub-standard performance.  Last race I was passing runners on the last lap, this time they were just getting further away.  Realised after about 600m it really wasn't happening.  Still, as Llamadance pointed out, an ideal excuse for some self-flagellation.  Good to gather with Fetchies as ever, though the weather wasn't ideal for full on picnicery.  At least it didn't rain.  1.47 1.52 1.54 1.30. Unaffiliated 6:49 7:03 7:15 7:03 58.16
FitterStu Really enjoyed this.  I had no idea that I could run this fast.  I will be faster next time as there is still lots of room for improvement.

HappyG(rrr) I'm hoping/assuming an improvement on my mile time. Not sure why, as I haven't seen a track since the last one. Will just hang on to the back of the sub 6:00 group and hope! Now, the 100m, that's a different matter! *Update - great fun, rain held off (thanks Flip!), brilliant to see so many fetchies, new n old, great long jumping by the kids! Time was a bit down - need to HTFU, I think! :-)G Harmeny AC, Kinross Road Runners 5:19 5:23 5:25 5:34 71.52
IanS Another good guess at estimating my time and just managed to sneak under the 6 min mark :-) Harmeny AC 5:56 5:57 5:59 5:59 69.57
Llamadance great day, don't think I could have run much harder - in  fact, it was a race of two halves. Was flagging at end of lap two, but tried to relax and stride out - things went much better from there on in. Happy enough with time, though a PB would have been nice. Unaffiliated 5:43 5:46 5:30 5:46 68.54
May ...still sleep deprived beyond belief...so anything around 6 min mile would be ok Scottish Prison Service AAC 5:15 5:37 6:00 5:37 75.79
