Not quite a PB but well up in the placings

This month for the Striders 10km I set myself on breaking 42:30 unfortunatley not realising how much slower the Domain course really is having never done it before. I ended up getting 43:31 which I was ok with and was 24 secs outside PB. I felt I had pushed myself and Uncle Dave said this course was worth at least 30 secs on Homebush, something I didn't realise fully until I got the results later in the arvo. I placed 88th, for the first time in the top 100. This put me at 61st on handicap which was fairly good. However for the series this puts me 15th in my age group, 43rd in open mens, 51st on the age and gender adjusted tables and a massive 9th place in the handicap rankings which I am extatic about. I have a feeling with the holiday break in b/n this race and next that I will be able to bring those times down even further and break that sub 42 possibly.
