Ran from where I am staying at Williamstown North to Telstra Dome and return.
Started about 11 am after driving back from Geelong.
Legs were very tired for most of the run after the fast 10k this morning.
Stomach was growling with about 10ks to go, sounding like it needed food.
Not sure if that is the carbohydrates being depleted and the fat reserves starting to be used.
Or was I just hungry. I only stopped for water and ate nothing for the hour before starting this run. I did eat after the 10k some bananas and oranges. But then drove back from Geelong.
Run was on tar and concrete bike paths plus some grass. Nice cool breeze most of the way and plenty of cloud kept the sun down.
Distance was 34.8ks in a time of 2:55.20.
Average of 5:02 per klm. Right on the pace I wanted.

I am in awe of your performances today. Firstly to run a 20 second PB in the 10km. Then to go and knock over 34.8km a little while later. Simply amazing!
That's a total of 44.8km for the day. I didn't realise when I suggested that you increase the distance of your long run that you would do it on the day you raced 10km.
Hope you pull up ok and you don't overdo it early on in this week. Might be advisable not to do any speedwork until later in the week.
7 weeks to go and we need you in Canberra in one piece.
Was using the monaghetti strategy Long slow 35ks and then a fast 10k.
Just did it in reverse that's all.
Ran over a marathon yesterday, just in 2 blocks that's all. Very happy.
You're training very well Paul, big weekends like that need a little recovery so don't go mad early in the week. Canberra's looking good for you mate.
