I'm in the mid 28, I concur, making mid 29 is quite "easy" now", makinq high
28 requires concentration, making high 27 is unreachable.

Congratulations! I remember the feeling, it's great! I hit 1:29:15 ONCE!!
Only once...... It's killing me, I haven't really been running Monza much,
but I did hit a time close to that in a race ONCE!!.....only once..... It is
such a *** to be that close to the sub 1:29, it hurts....

Excellent Sean

Now you can start down the road to a sub 29. Let me assure you, that road is
twice as long....

Wait a minute, now that I think about it, I don't have any idea how long
that road is.

Well, good luck, anyway!

Dude, some people are struggling to find more speed at 1:30... It isn't as
easy for others as it seems to be for you.
