Tough morning for a run. 20 degrees isn't warm but with the cloud cover and some rain it was 90% humidity which really sapped the strength.
I was a bit late to the start at Narrabeen so just had time to grab a map and run.
Started at North Narrabeen surf club. The preferred surf break of World Champ Damian Hardman. Vicious left hander and that is not before the locals beat you up in the car park.
After the start we ran through Warriewood, Mona Vale, Ingleside and a short bit of downhill bush. Looked like the Equaliser course with the sand all washed away and plenty of rocks. Then it was along McCarrs creek to Church Point and then back through Bayview, Loquat Valley, Winji Jimmi, and Bungan before turning to run back to Narrabeen via the coast.
Plenty of hills on the H3 by the Striders but I reckon should have been H4. Ran with Jo Cowan for most of the run as the front guys took off and subsequently got lost and we saw them coming back from Church Point the wrong way. That is why I run with a map and Jo, Mark F and Pete Truscott who know every course.
Total was 28.3ks in 2:33:44. Average pace of 5:25 per klm. Bit slow but at least I had a long time on my feet.
