Getting back into the swing of it..

Fri:
Easy 8k run with Durante
Sat:
Met up with Durante at 4pm on Sat arvo for the 5k track race at ES Marks. Both of us were suffering a little after big nights out on Friday night. After a 15 min jog with Steve Thurston, we felt a lot better. It was pretty hot on the track about 24C and sunny, but once the gun went I just focus on getting into a decent rhythm. Steve took off like a rocket as he was keen to dip under 15 mins. I settled into a group in the back, went throu' 3k in 9.58 with Gary Howard. Happy to finish up with 16.34 and it seems like the residual tiredness from the marathon is leaving the legs. Durante ran well finishing up with 15.47 and Steve ran very well to win 14.32.
Sun:
Out with Steve and Durante for a 2 hour long run in centennial parklands. We chatted about the up and coming races...10k Lane Cove, 3k track race and the 5.6k JP Morgan race...should be an interesting 2-3 weeks.
