Weekend wrap
Sunday 15th October, 2006
7km | easy | grass/trail
I was feeling surprisingly good this morning and headed out for a quick lap of the outside fence run of Centennial before breakfast and the first Nippers of the season. Whats with the weather ? 25 degrees and 6.00am on Saturday and only 12 degrees at the same time today !!
Anyway, I ran it at HM pace and felt pretty strong all the way. A few days ago I was 50/50 to run the Striders Internal 1/2M next Sunday. But now I'm thinking that I might just do it anyway. Not sure about the 1:39:00 handicap, but we'll give it a shot I guess. I must say that two laps of Lane Cove is not a real pleasant way to spend a Sunday morning. Lets hope that its not a hot one.

17km | easy | grass/trail
I headed out the door at 5.30am and did a lap of the outside fence of Centennial Park and Queens Park with a bit of Moore Park thrown in (10kms) and then another of the Cenntennial lap (7kms) to finish off the run.
I've have been spending the last few days icing, massaging and stretching my numerous niggles and have come out the other end OK.
I did it quite slow but managed to get through without the niggles really complaining too much. Jumped in the car after the run and immersed myself in the Boggie Hole at Bronte beach for a nice cool down. Verrrry hot out there.
Mood: --->
It's that damned Global Cooling. We complain about it every winter in Canberra.
Two laps of LCP is what I call a tough half marathon!
Almost worth joining Striders to do 2 laps of LCP ;-)
Pebbly Beach ahhh the memories - thanks mate ;-)
I've seen those roos at Bronte beach: need Australian values to swim there.
Those handicaps at the internal 1/2 are like we all ran a PB last week.
