Storm Blows Eels Away
Distance: 12.7 km
Time: 66' 32"
Rate: 5' 14" per km
Weather: cloudy, temp 12 degrees, humidity 75%, wind NNE 10 kmph
Week: 12.7 km, Oct: 41.6 km, Year: 3371.55 km
The Eels ran round in circles chasing the storm clouds, the same as I did this afternoon. My intensity was no where near that of the grand final as I have less to play for.
Waited until later in the day to run from home around the base of Tuggeranong Hill. I tried not to go hard but to maintain a pace I can handle for next Saturday at the marathon. At today's pace I should be able to run around 3 hrs 45 mins, I will be happy with that on the basis of 20 minutes slower than a flat road marathon.
Now need some sunshine and warmth to get a short faster run done early this week and then rest before Saturday morning.

3:45 eh? I'll buy you a six-pack if you beat Kelley Flood.

Okay Ewen, back to our betting (even though I have no memory of who owes who what). My bets are:
3.35 - Nick M
3.40 - Two Fruits
3.40 - (injured) Mick C.
As for stakes ....hmmm ... I hate beer .... so 6 pack of beer from me to you if your bets on the above are closer to time than mine. 1 bottle of good red wine to me if my bets are closer. Deal? Bet on/off?
