Monday Long One

After Friday's yum cha lunch and a weekend of looking after the kids and only getting out for a 15 minutes swim on Saturday afternoon, I was feeling good for today's session. Crowd of about a dozen today including MC, Russell, Emma, Laura (great effort at Striders 10km on Sat to finish 2nd) and Charlie. MC's plan to keep the Monday run at 4.40 average pace is working well, so I hung around until the Opera House gates and then headed back to Pitt street for 13kms at 4.38 average pace. Was keen to carry on for the end of the set but a 2pm meeting put paid to that. Out for a La Perouse ride in the morning weather permitting and Corp Cup again on Wed, so will give tomorrow's speed set a miss and back up on Thursday and Friday. Entered the May SMH half marathon today, so will need to ramp up the training if I'm to have a crack at 88mins. Today's stats at http://connect.garmin.com/activity/147592883
