Well young Conor entered the world on the 18th August at 8.56am. Mum and bub are doing well. On the running front, I've been struggling with a few niggles but still got out and about. I think I missed 1 day in the last 2 weeks and basically have been running 8-10k most days. With the hip flexor issue, I've been doing lots of stretching and strength work. I missed out on a long run last Sunday (22nd) only managed 1 hr 10 mins. Made up for it on Wed 25th with a 2hr 6 min run covering 28km (avging 4.30 pace) On Thurs ran a 5k time trial in 17.50. On Sat went down to rushcutters and completed a 400s by 10 off 1 min avging 74 secs. Felt relatively comfortable after 4 reps, the hip niggle more or less disappeared.
Timmy was a no show this morning (though dropping over the DVD's and flowers to Liv will ensure he get plenty of breaky in Phelps street for the rest of the year ;). I ran the same course as wednesday 3 8k loops of centennial and 4k to & from in 2hr 6 mins. Funny only 2 secs difference between today's and wednesday's session. I'm heading off to Europe next Sat for 2 wks so will focus on building the kms for New York.
