A mixed start to the week, taking it reasonably easy and spending 10 minutes in the river on Monday just in case. No problems, not taking any chances.
Monday was very warm with temps in high 20's and a sunny day.
Today was cloudy, showers & much cooler but not cold. It's been a long time since I ran in the rain.
Maintaining average means each week needs to over 100 kms as it's slowly been dropping since finishing the Birdsville run. Prior to the taper, the weekly average for this year was about 112 kms.
I'm not going to chase totals just to make the end of the year look good, but with Bogong on in early January, keeping above 100 wont be a problem.
All good, just keep plugging away.
