Rate 5'28" mpk
Weather: Start time 10:15AM, sunny, light breeze in parts, temp range 21-27 degrees, humidity 25%

January:
Distance: 446.3km
Running days: 22 / 30
Ave: 20.29km per run

Met or passed absolutely no other people out there today, which suits me just fine on a mid week run. The tracks are really dusty now with little rain recently. I must admit that I am wondering when all these kms are going to catch up with me, but so
far so good in the training for SFT. Have no niggles, soreness and seem to be recovering well after each run. Must be doing something right.

A regular run around the tracks behind Theodeore leaving out the climb to top of Mt Tuggeranong.The rest of the run still involves an undulating track from Calwell oval, up to the top of Theodore Hill, a circuit of Mt Tuggie and over the ridge that connects Conder and Theodore, down past a couple of reservoirs and eventually back to the sub station,past the oval and shops back home. Steep in places, the downhill is very runable so a bit of pace, easy under foot on the dirt, change of surface to grass on the oval, bit of a mixture. Just what you need. No swim today, I do miss that part of the recovery process and I think it works, for me anyway.

Tomorrow? Do I run, go for a ride on the mountain bike or do nothing? January total looks good, do I take the monthly total to 460km at 20 km per run or not?

See how I feel on the day.

  • I've lost count of the number of times I've run over those tracks - never get sick of the great views though.

    That impressive average km per run has caught my eye. See how you're feeling... seems a shame not to get out there (even on the bike) on these perfect days.
