I intended to either run the star or smc his morning but a evening of enjoying both the swans and the tigers victories saw a little sleep in. I heventually got out the door and headed to the bay for 2 laps at 7.00am.
My only wish today was for even pacing. This meant if I started out too hard Iwas going to ahve to hang on at the end. I didnt go out desperately hard but was sitting on 4.10 pace pretty much the whole way through. It became a little uncomfortable after 4kms and I really just held on for most of the run. My rythym seems to have deserted me at the moment, it is hard work at present, but I know I am still running with a bit of Sydney in my legs still. I am surprised though just how much it took out of me. I am confident that I will be back into the swing of things in a week or so, when I hope to see some benefit of the marathon.
Happy to see Owl and Jen Runs out this morning, both looking very good. Wanted to stop and have a chat but I knew that would have been the end of me today. I finished my 2 laps in 57.45 in nice even splits, despite working pretty hard for most of the run.
Tommorow is another day and hope springs eternal!

It was great to see you yesterday morning Nick. You were looking really comfortable - the Owl & I, on the other hand, had only just started!!
