27Km Long Run After The Heat Wave


Gee whiz, the weather has been atrocious in Sydney with a massive heat wave with temp above 40 for 4-5 days in a row...when the winds hit yesterday avo the temp dropped a massive 23 degrees and me and my running partner were off on our long run...27kms....3 more than ever before...

We ran from Westleigh to Mt Kuringai and back, reasonably flat, nice sprinkle of rain, much easier than the last 4 long runs which have been really hot..by the time we hit half way we still felt strong and kept this way until about 20km..then it got abit harder and we stopped talking and were in our own thoughts for the rest, coping mode....great to finish and realise that we can do 2/3rds of a marathon distance already!
