20km Easy

Much more pleasant than yesterday. Ran down on the Lowlands as it's just more convenient. Beautiful morning to be out. Running fast is so much harder than running long.

16km Cycle
http://connect.garmin.com/activity/248912917
New bike! Need money from my parents to pay for this. Yes, I'm 33, I live with my parents and I am getting a bike for christmas. Slightly different to the malvern star bmx I got when I was 9.
Much nicer than the Reid I bought earlier in the year which got stolen by some junkie asshole from Westmead.
Saw Damien, had needles in the calves and psoas. Ready to rock and roll this week, albeit nervous about the 12k tempo coming up.

24km Easy
http://connect.garmin.com/activity/248405209
Another tough day. Decided to try and get a sleep in so didn't start running until about 8am, was supposed to be cooler anyway. Still retardly humid. Weight's been at around 71.3kg, was 69.5 when I got back. Made the mistake of using a nuun electrolyte tablet in the bottle. Tastes like shit and made my mouth all sticky and disgusting. Never again.
Just feeling beat up and looking forward to a couple of days not running. I assume its a combination of harder training than I've done for a while, with longer runs and shit weather + actually working a job for the first time in months.
My wife says I'm a wuss. Good to see she's picked up some aussie slang.

6km Tempo
http://connect.garmin.com/activity/248084993
3k warm up, 6k tempo, 3k cool down. Tough. Lost a bit of focus and dropped a few seconds on the third km. Was dizzy by the end. I wonder how much difference the humidity makes, was praying for rain but got about three drops. Ran for a km right as the cool down with another runner- 58yr old triathlete lady. The people I meet are either way faster or way slower than me.
Jumped in the ice bath afterwards.
Haile Gebrselassie racing in Fukuoka this weekend, shame Ben St Lawrence isn't there.
November Totals:
Running: 244.5km (20:24:33)
Strength: 2:58:37
Best month since July.
