45min run

Boring title for today's post, but I literally just ran for 45mins! Woke up late so didn't have the full hour to play with. Went through the gardens to the GBB then back along the Story Bridge. Put in a few surges when I felt good - getting down to 3:30 or so pace. Generally felt great and loved being out there!! The GPS said 10km (including the hill sprints), so it could be anywhere between 10km and 12km! It felt like I was going a fair bit quicker than 4:30 pace. I can't wait for my Suunto to arrive.

I had a quick chat to Pat Carroll and may join his group on Tuesday to see what it's like. They go at 5:30am though so it would mean a bit of an earlier start than I'm used to! Some of them look quite quick though, and it'd be nice to train with a group every now and then.

I got back to the Marriott 5mins early, so I did 3 hill sprints up the evil little hill. There are always people doing sprints up the hill, and you can tell the ones who do it regularly ... because they look fit!!! Good on them I say - it's a tough little beast. My times up the hill today were 33s-36s-30s. Not very consistent, but with no rest.

I am currently booked to fly home tonight, but still waiting to see if I have to work this weekend, which could force me to stay in Brisvegas! Arrrrghhhhh, certainty would be good.
