Easing back into it...

Sat: 2k warm up and then an 8k steady state run, starting out at 4.10 pace and then finishing off with an avg pace of 3.45. Finished up with a 2k warm down. Calf felt fine.

Sun: Out for a 2hr run with Mike, Clyde and Glen Guzzo. Started out in centennial and ran the C2S from Edgecliff out to Bronte and back into Centennial. The calf was pretty tight for most of the run. Halfway through the run we were avg'ing 4.26 pace, somehow I stopped my watch so not sure the avg pace for the whole run. I struggled in the last few km of the run and was glad to finish up. Timmy was a no show this morning, obviously out partying or catching up on the DVD's i've recommended to him. Timmy as you know I don't get out that often so picked up another movie 'Revolutionary Road'. Quite depressing really but thought provoking all the same 7.4/10. Kate deserved an Oscar for this one, still can't understand how she got one for the Reader.
The kid Durante, who was doubting himself last week, managed to win the 5k in Rockdale this morning in an excellent time of 15.35. Chadi was 20 sec behind him. It won't be long before Durante runs sub 15! That should put Durante in the 'A' team for St George next week....it will be a very quick team with Thurston, Ben and Tim Rowe..

I'm recommending EJ take the 35+ teams first leg to bring those St George blokes back to earth. Durante is running well. Tim did have a problem with his ankle I think at SMH. Maybe fixing it?
