I've been getting a little slammed at work, so have been a) slack with training and b) slack with blogging! So, here's a bit of catchup:
Thursday - nothing but work and a very unhealthy (and not too tasty) tapas lunch. Did 100 strict pushups before bed.
Friday - Just under 10km in 40:27. Average heart rate of 161bpm. Started off easy with Matty and Dave, then picked it up a bit around Macquarie's Chair. FInished the loop around Darling Harbour with a bit of a slowdown to check out the City Dash. Shauny (the machine) won the mile dash with a 10kg sandbag!!
Saturday - was a bit hungover so took Bo for a cruisy 10km along the coast to Dee Why and back (46:07, average HR of 158bpm). A few hills, some rock running and generally a great run! Bo was a fantastic partner - off the leash most of the way and only started to slow down towards the last few km. He's getting fitter and his feet seem to be OK now.
Sunday - met up with Sam and Quentin for a great longish run. Beautiful day and did the coast track past Dee Why, with a bit of a loop around Manly at the start. About 21km in 1:33:36 (average pace of 4:30 and HR of 155bpm). Nice talking pace and the perfect way to break in my ridiculous-looking new Mizunos. They were really comfy and I'm very happy with them.
All up, about 42km in the last 3 days and I'm feeling fit for the Gold Coast half. I'll try to get some more speed work in this week then have a bit of a taper.
