PPAC-75 10km Road Race

A high quality field lined up for only the second 10km road race of 2021. We welcomed two first timers and eleven athletes were running their first PPAC 10km race - a great opportunity to set a marker for long distance form as we head into the cooler months.

We were treated to another great performance and PPAC club record as Andarge set a new PB of 36:16 as personal records tumbled across the board. The day's biggest improvement came from Matt, continuing an amazing run of form, slashing 2:04 off his previous best closely followed by James and Jack with respective 1:37 and 55-second improvements. There were five Points PB's with big jumps for Guanghui and Dickson.

Well done to youth athlete Sreyleap for finishing comfortably under one hour in her first 10km race!

Mark produced by far the most consistent performance of the day, with Guanghui and top female finisher Yin Ling also sub-1.00 for consistency. The only athlete to record a personal Sokha Lap best was Dickson, all the more impressive considering his previous best was set during a 5k race.

In the fitness factor ratings there are several athletes in the mid-to-high 50's across a range of finish times of 36-45 minutes, with Jack top, just shy of the 60 threshold, testament to some excellent consistent training.

Thanks as always to the race officials and volunteers Seavmey and Sivmuyleng, and Seavmey & Matt for the videography and photography. Join us soon for another PPAC event!
