Didn't want to go out and back along the beach again so went for a loop around the Busselton bypass to Fairway Drive instead. Walked outside into a very light mist and immediately thought I should have had some nipple protection but our apartment is on the second floor and I couldn't be bothered going back upstairs. Started out easy but soon after getting onto the bypass path the mist turned into steady rain and I started to ramp up the pace, pretty quickly getting to around FCP. The rain eased after about 20 minutes and then stopped 15 minutes later but once I start to up the pace there is no going back so it turned into more of a build run than a long slow run. Felt as though I was tiring a bit in the last couple of km but the whole second half was faster than my first tempo effort yesterday and I was still getting faster at the end. Starting to feel the nipples a little in the last 10 minutes but not too bad, no blood.
