All Good On A Tuesday

Today:
Purpose:  junk kms on a warm day
Distance:  12.15 km
Time:  67' 24"
Rate:  5' 33" per km
Recovery:  10 mins in river before running
Weather:  sunny, temp 29 degrees, humidity 35%, wind light NW 10 kmph

Week:   32.3 km,  Jan:  310.45 km
Year:  310.45 kms in 4 weeks at ave  77.6 km pw

This week is going to get hot in the afternoons with top temps between 35-38 degrees, not a cloud in sight & certainly no rain.
As I have to run in this warm weather, not that I mind, I don't, I tend to mix up these kind of weeks with short running, a few breaks & hitting the river a couple of times if I can.
This keeps the core body temp down, and stops the build up of thirst resulting in loads of drinking.
The shorter running means a little faster, but still at a comfortable pace.
Good today, a usual run home for lunch and back again. The 10 minute recovery was after only 1 km after the start, but it helped the remainder of the run. Nice, felt in the zone for the rest of run.
Weekly average has increased significantly over the past 2 weeks due to last week's big 130 kms. Would be good to get into the 90's and be able to maintain that for a while before hitting the big week's in April.
