Monday Hit Out

Huge crowd for the Monday run today - you can tell C2S is close - but surprisngly no Tom. Maybe he is still recovering from the Hurts drinks on Thursday night.
The pace was on from the start and was confirmed by James at Mrs Macquaries as being 15 secs per km faster than a normal Monday run. Group started to split up a bit so Adam and I decided to ray and stay with the faster guys and just do 8kms around to Shelley Street. Not planning to have a big week with the race this weekend. Felt pretty ordinary at the start and stomach and head hadn't been feeling good all morning, but around the opera house felt good and kept the pace pretty comfortably for the rest of the run. Overheard a couple of the guys talking about race plans for Sunday "do the first 5kms in 17.30, then the next 5kms in 19.30 and then just come home hard"- wish we could be having the same conversation but I fear if I could even do 5kms in 17.30, I wouldn't be doing a 6th km! Run stats from today are at http://connect.garmin.com/activity/104845642.
