10km race tomorrow. Never feel particularly positive about what I can do. Hope to dip under 38, but probably more likely to be just over it.

Cruisey, early sunday morning run along Manly Beach. Earliest I've been running in months. Had some soft tissue work on friday and some taping and everything is feeling pretty good. Day 20 of consecutive running, haven't done that in a while.

Ridiculously busy at work. Literally on the feet for 8 hrs. Buggered. Was going to rest, but needed the stress relief. Felt ordinary. But am now on day 17 of a running streak. Injury is the only way out of this madness.

Calling this an aerobic run because of the hills, not the pace. Still have a niggly right quad.

Happy enough. Would have liked another 10k today but am too tired after my brothers wedding. Was going to have a complete day off, but decided to go slow. Legs are as niggly as they have been in a while. Need to fit in a real solid massage soon.

5km Time Trial + 4x200

http://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/631319110

5km: 18:09 (3:38)

200s: 38, 38, 40, 39

Ran at the Narrabeen Sydney Academy of Sport on the synthetic track. 5k PB, fairly accurate I think going on where I started and finished on the track. The 200s felt good. Right leg is niggly and concerning and so cut the cool down short. Went to Collaroy Ocean pool for a soak post-run. Would like to get under 18mins before the end of the year.

Last of the night shift runs. Legs heavy and tired but just pushed and ended up with a bunch of sub 4:30min k's including a 4:13 last km. Little less tight today but still noticeable.

Have literally been up for 26 hrs prior to this run. Night shift on no sleep and dammit if it wasn't as busy as hell. Quite happy to get this done.

Nice morning by the lake and out to Long Reef headland. Felt relaxed and easy at 4:34 pace which is nice. Have to be careful with the legs now.

90m gain

Feeling a bit sore still but pretty good. Might have tweaked a hammy when I had to jump a bit of work they were doing on the track. Felt relatively easy holding 4:30ish pace. Wasn't aiming to be running that pace. Looks like the main part of the bridge is over the creek now, maybe a few more months and there will be a pretty good 8k loop around the lake. Don't know why connect says the elevation is 180m and strava says 90m.

Run Sydney Half Marathon

http://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/624656210

21.1km
1:23:23 (3:57)
190m gain

A PB - 57 seconds off of Blackmores. Not quite as pancake flat as I thought when coming up and over the inclines  multiple times. Pretty nasty headwind along the riverfront. Finishing on the track was good. Pretty much solo running. Ended up in 30th position, so not a huge amount of depth, but still nice to be up in that area of the race.

Haven't been sleeping all that well this week and work has been busy. Gonna be an interesting day tomorrow. Plan is to head out at 3:59min pace and hold/kick a little in the last 5k if I can. Today its 25 degrees at 6:30, hopefully its 15 as forecast tomorrow.
