Endomondo Running Workout: 21.02 km in 1h:55m:03s
Undeniably my worst ever half marathon, but arguably my best ever training run (since I usually train at 5:30 pace). Boy, was I stiff - still recovering from last week's run at Kangaroo Valley, I think. An absolutely stunning day, clear, just a touch of breeze - last year we ran in a howling gale. It's fantastic to run next to the sea, listening to the shoosh of breaking wavelets. Plus, there were boats, people fishing, walking, cycling, doing headstands and generally entertaining themselves.
Afterwards, some stretching, pancakes and oranges, then home for gardening, shopping at the local market and carpentry (still plodding away on that staircase, but progress is progress - the next timber pieces to be bent are much more fragile than the last lot, and I don't want any breakages.) Ran into two colleagues at the market, including the one who had a tumour removed from his brain last Monday! No, seriously. And he looked pretty well and sounded coherent. Fingers crossed. Of course, he's still waiting for the tissue biopsy results, so has no idea what the future holds, but whatever, nice to see him up and about.
That's about it.
