Easter Monday

Today:
Distance: 24.35km
Time: 2hrs 19mins 44secs
Rate: 5'44" per km
Weather: Nice day, sunny,cool,temp range 14-20 degrees,light NE breeze,humidity 50%

It is now time to push out the distances so after a relaxing day yesterday after a long run on Saturday, today was again to be over 20km to start off the new week. A very nice running day in the nation's capital with plenty of people out enjoying the day and most of them were on the bush tracks and fire trails on the hills and ridge tops overlooking the Tuggeranong and Woden valleys.
Left home just after 10 o'clock in the morning and headed down Ashley Dr to meet Isabella Dr where I headed east past Fadden Pines and behind the houses of MacArthur into the nature parks. Finished up at Long Gully Road where I did a complete circuit of Isaacs Ridge over the top, past the communication towers on the same loop as the Tour de Mtn course in December but in reverse finally making it back to Long Gully Road. More uphill on the Wanniassa Hills over to the trig and down to the houses behind Fadden. The easy part was the run down through Gowrie and along Ashley Dr back home.
Good strong run today, much better although shorter than Saturday with little wind to struggle against. Very enjoyable and a loop circuit well worth doing again even if just for the views of the mountains in the distance.It will be great in winter with a snow covering.
