Hot Day
Today:
Purpose: Add to Base
Distance: 20.00 km
Time: 1 hr 58 mins 11 secs
Rate: 5' 55" per km
Altitude gain/loss: 328 metres
Weather: sunny, temp 31 degrees, humidity 30%, wind light NW 10 kmph
Week: 34.05 km, Jan & Year: 401.1 km
The figures don't look overly exciting, in fact look a tad slow.
But, given the hot conditions, last rest day was on Christmas Day with some really warm day in there as well, today was a good one. Best long run excluding a couple of good weekend sessions.
The warm weather I'm comfortable running in until it gets close to the old 100 degrees F. Then I'll stop.
A big circuit today taking in Bonython, Gordon, part of the slopes of Tuggeranong Hill, Theodore, Calwell to get home for lunch. Then back to work the usual way behind Bonython with the Garmin stopped at the front door of the depot at exactly 20 kms. No shuffling to get a rounded figure to make the diary look good.
Great day, very enjoyable & very comfortable. Ticked over the 400 km mark for the year in a day over 3 weeks, so far, so good.

Are, 'flattish' for your 10k race Monday. That's my hill session course!
From the map, looks like 22.8 goes over Rob Roy and back via that flat section before the steep downhill?

Correct on the 22.8 km. Over the top, open paddock then down hill to Conder reservoir.

Going to sign up for the flattish 10k. My only mountain race of the year (since as a once a year 6'er I've been effectively banned from that one).
