What can I say?
Would it please stop raining!!!!!!
Today's 3hr run was done on the road due to the amount of rain we've had here in Sydney. I wasn't going near the bush, I only wahsed my shoes yesterday!
It was a fairly hilly run but once again all's good until the 2hr mark and then I just struggle. Oh well only 2 or 3 more long run's left.
Weighed 83.9kg this morning so not going up which is good but not going down either.

Not Happy
Haven't posted lately.
Can't say I've been feeling good. Monday's 3hr run was very slow, it just didn't feel good right from the start.
Then with the rain all this week it's been hard. Didn't get my Wed. morning run in but played a hard game of touch that night.
Had a sore throat all week and have enjoyed a few day rest this week.
Yesterdays 13km felt good for the first half.
Today I just ran (parden the pun) out of time. Tried to wait the morning out for the rain to stop. Then got roped into RUG shopping with my wife. Decided to belt out 6kms in just over 28mins so the day wasn't completely wasted.
I'm definitly giving tomorrows Fatass in the Blue Mountains a miss. They have had massive amounts of rain and I just don't think the chance of injury is worth it.

Australia Day
Australia Day has come and gone.
I spent the morning doing a fantastic Fatass run with a whole heap of CoolRunners. Got through 33kms which is my longest run since Six Foot last year. I have to say I didn't gain any confidence from this run. 33km in about 3hrs10. I think I'm more of a one pace guy and getting caught up with a few runners had me at a pace that was probably about 10% faster than I should of gone and that meant I did more walking in the last hour than I would of liked.
On the positive side the legs are sore but not trashed. Touch football last night was tough but enjoyable after having about a 5 week break.
Weight is sitting at 84, 83.8 and 84.1 for the last three days. Hopefully I can get that down to 83 then 82 over the next 3 weeks.

Started Well
Disappointing end to the week. Amazing what heat can do. Unfortunately I had to run at Midday today due to staying over with friends last night and going out this afternoon. It was 39 degrees when I was running and after 6kms I had to start having walking breaks. I was hung over as well but the heat was just intolerable. The water I took with me was hot hot hot by the end of the run.
I had some great runs during the week. 20klms Monday, 5.5km Wed morning and a great 9km Wed arvo that had 10 x 100m stride throughs and a 7km run Thursday arvo.
