Monday Hurts

Apologies for the delay in getting yesterday's run update done - think it was just a combination of laziness and forgetfulness. Not a bad turnout yesterday given the weather conditions - cold,wet and windy. Mike and James among the crowd at the start and wepicked up Laura and Rob at the Art Gallery. Was only doing half the set so started off out front and wanted to hold a steady pace round to Shelly Street. Kept a pretty steady 4.30/35 average pace for the first 3/4 kms around Farm Cove and the Opera House. Picked up the pace a bit down Hickson Road and into Barangaroo where the wind and rain unleashed on us- rain was almost horizantal and wind was straight into the face. Very glad I was just doing another km in those conditions. James put on burst of speed over the last km which was completely unnecessary and resulted in a quicker last 100mtrs than I anticipated. Run stats are at http://connect.garmin.com/activity/88912488.
Adam still in Perth with work, so should be back for a the Friday run. Aiming to get out for the long run tomorrow - will aim for 12/13kms.
