Down on the Mornington Peninsula for a cousin's 40th last night (recovery from which was assisted by the bonus hour). The route for this run took a familiar theme - initially out along from front of the peninsula, back along the back beaches - although in a different form to usual, as high tides and big surf ruled out the section along Portsea beach and I thus only went as far as Sorrento (with a longer section at the other end to compensate).

The first half-hour wasn't great but after that it built well, reasonably strong on the numerous dune climbs along the back beach track (although Achilles continues to be touchy) and settling into a nice groove in the final hour for my best run since returning home. Still had plenty in me in the closing stages. An encouraging session (and shows that I can have a decent long run without doing it on snow).
