Training Log Archive: T - runner

Flew back from Melbourne, no time for anything.

Warm up 10 mins, warm down 27 mins - got a lot further up the road than I thought and had to speed down in the semi darkness. Pretty sure I heard a wombat or two out there.

2x 15min hill intervals on Link Rd - the track up from my aunt and uncle's place in the Black Range. Nice upwards sloping track through the bush. Perfect place for this kind of run. Felt quite strong, second 15 much harder at the end than the first.

Long run - same route as last two days but extended it at the end to go around another park close to the motorway that I wished I'd remembered a few days ago. Getting dark toward the end, but a better run now I know where I'm going.

Same route as yesterday, just faster and more confident with where I was going, so a bit faster.

In Melbourne this week, visiting my Nana who is in and out of hospital at the moment, so running in a new place... So in North Balwyn, down Corhampton Rd, joining the series of parks that connect up to Camberwell Grammar, then over the fence and onto the Outer Circle old railway track to the Harp Rd intersection, along there then through the parks and past the footy oval, behind Kew High School and back home. Slow running in a place I haven't run before, even though I've spent a lot of time here. Had to check the map a few times and stopped to read a few signs about the railway. Saw a whole bunch of boys running around the park next to the school with their fancy running shoes on, but some of them still in the rest of their normal uniform, including tie and blazer, which was pretty funny.
