A hot morning in the Park-12.6ks

After two dirty hangovers in 2 days it was time to do some running.

Woke up this morning with bruises all over my body. The go karting was excellent yesterday but hell on the body. I have bruises on my back and hips plus an elbow.

Finally started out at 9 am and it was already 25 degrees. Thats hot.

Ran up to Centennial Park and ran around on the grass. A bit cooler in there with the tree shade.
Ran 12.60 ks in a time of 1:10:01. Average pace of 5:33 per klm.

Very hot morning. Legs felt good, as for the rest of the body. I feel like crap. I need a sleep now.

Aim for the rest of the week is to get in 2 more faster runs and then the half on Sunday after a wedding Saturday. Could be ugly. Get the buckets ready.

No sympathy from me Flake as it is all self inflicted. Are you sure you're ready for the half on Sunday? Maybe that is rushing it a bit. Remember, you are in it for the long haul.

Flake,

Absolutely NO sympathy from me either!!

I can't believe you got to go Go-Karting as well, and didn't invite any of us (Boooooo to you)!!

I shall let Action know to have the buckets ready :)

Take care,

K
