Trail Running race (Flinders Tour Trail Race) 1:55:09 [4] 23.65 km (4:52 / km) +211m 4:40 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Trail Sensor

Decided to do this race as part of distance build-up to the 29km race in September.
Had set a goal of 2 hours and smashed it! So happy!
Started chatting to another runner after about 4km and ran with him for the next 14km. He definitely helped push me along big time.
Never run this fast for this sort of distance before. Helps have a course that is fairly flat, although there were a few small + steep hills, plus a lot of mud.

Running warm up/down 6:00 [2] 1.0 km (6:00 / km)
shoes: Asics GT-3000

Stair Running (Kangaroo Point Cliffs) 28:00 [5]
ahr:166 max:183 shoes: Asics GT-3000

12x up Kangaroo Point cliff stairs
Jog back down, 10 push-ups, repeat
I've done these stair climbs for a few months now, and its the first time I could not do push-ups between every rep. Only managed about 8 before my arms pretty much collapsed... Gym fail.

6 PM

Street-O race (Mansfield) 38:56 [4] 8.07 km (4:49 / km)
shoes: Asics GT-3000

Very well set course. Bad route choice on my part. 500m more than Jamie Dougall.

Note

Was going to do intervals but a tickle in the throat + drizzle + cold weather meant it was wiser to stay in.

7 PM

Core Strength (Upper Body Weights) 1:15:00 [3]

Trained with Simon Mee in the gym for the first time. Paaaain. Upper body is so much weaker/smaller than lower body!
