Storm Brewing

Today:
Distance: 13.5 km
Time: 1 hr 14 mins 15 secs
Rate: 5' 30" per km
Weather: storm clouds, temp 24 degrees, humidity 55%, wind calm
Week: 93.55 km
Nov: 447.4 km
Year: Target: 5000 km less ytd 4388.6 km = 611.4 km to go

Not much to report bout the run, easy Friday home for lunch and back to work.Very warm and humid today, don't know how I would handle Queensland conditions in summer. Guess Caboolture Dawn to Dusk in Feb is off the plan.
After Ewen's calculation on how fast Kerrie B ran for 100 kms in a few seconds over 9 hours, I don't know how she can maintain that pace for so long. She ran faster than my run today, for 100 kms.
Then again the Australian record for a male is sub 6 hrs 30 mins, now that is moving. A record not held by Kouros, Tim Sloan from Tassie holds the record set in 1995 in the Ross to Richmond run. and he is off the pace for the world record. Kouros ran just under 7 hrs in 1996 at Shepparton, Vic.
Linda Meadows hold the Australian female record for 100 kms road of 7 hrs 40 mins set in NZ in 1995. Kerrie needs to get a bigger move on.
Cotter 21 miler on Saturday providing the weather is Ok, otherwise Black Mountain is Plan B.
