Resting

Today: Nil

A real rest day, even caught the bus to work and home.

Part of the training plan running long distance is the mental side. The physical side is hard but doable. The mental side requires at bit more attention as the run goes on, the more the brain gets tired as well.
That's why they play music, change directions and other activities happen at events to take away the boredom.
Although there is always something happening, someone to talk to, or just counting off the laps and doing mental calculations on far to to go.
Tomorrow's long run in Stromlo will be over the same 4km loop many times. How far depends on what happens on the day. But doing loops of the same course sure helps the mental side. Same scenery, or in Stromlo's case, lack of scenery, maybe a change of direction. Certainly a " Tan " type course.
The ACTCCC event at Googong Dam would be much better, a hilly half marathon with barely a flat part on the course. A ripper of an event, pity I have other priorities just at the moment.
