Summer Came Back for a While

Today:
Distance: 18.7 km
Time: 1 hr 55 mins 31 secs
Rate: 6' 11" per km
Weather: sunny, temp 20-24 degrees, humidity 40%, wind calm
Week: 80.05 km
Nov: 433.9 km
Year: Target 5000 km less ytd 4375.1 km = 624.9 km to go
Year: 4375.1 km in 250/332 days = 17.5 km per run day

No bike ride for various reasons so a perfect opportunity to add a few more kms to the tally on a really nice day. The clouds cleared mid morning to a fine sunny day, perfect running conditions, so I unintentionally ran longer today instead of Tuesday which was a shortie.
From work via a few rough tracks near the river to a circuit at the back of Urambi Hill. From near the bridge over Tuggie Creek, I went up a long steady slope across an open paddock that comes out near Gleneagles estate. Then along the recently graded fire trail above Kambah houses to go down the track at the back of Urambi Hill. Really steep in places after passing Black Sally's dam where the vet's handicap course once went up the hill.
After recrossing Tuggie Creek at the rocks, I followed the river back to Pine Is, a small loop around there to add a few more kms, stopped at the beach to stand in the water for 10 minutes before jogging back to work.
Really enjoyable day, but the storm clouds were building and a drop or two of rain fell later in the day.
