monday long run

well following the excesses of saturday night... decided not to get up at 5 (2 hours after i crawled into bed) and do my long run before my course. so today was long run day!

met the owl down at the bay after I had done 20 mins to even our times out. She decided to take me on a very new and exciting route (for me) that went up lilyfield road (big ass hill!!!) over the anzac bridge (big ass climb too!!) and then through glebe and annandale and back to the bay. it was a gorgeous run and was excellent to run somewhere new. my legs were a bit tired and it felt like a bit of a grind but nonetheless 1hr50mins was completed with excellent company (and some giggling about saturday night hijinks) and we finished off with a marvellous breakfast with jen and chonky in leichardt.

noice. now i am feeling a bit energised again (must be the breakfast) so am contemplating a walk down to the pool and a bit of a swim. but not sure that is such a good idea in the interests of getting to sweat training in reasonable shape tomorrow... might give it an hour or so...
