| C • the return? 2 |
| Running 30:00 [3]6 km (5:00 / km) | |
| |
| Anzac park hills. Felt pretty average, and didn't really feel like I could push hard on the hills, but the overall time on the run was as quick as I've ever done it, and I usually try and smash myself. I'm going to take that as a good sign.
sleep in tomorrow morning! yay! |

Had one interesting incident - Scott hopped over a dead possum right in front of me while I was trying to have a drink. I swerved to avoid the possum (road kill splatter is not cool), but dropped my water bottle. I was just turning round to retrieve it when a car ran it over. thirsty trip home! |
