Run 1:43:00 [3] 21.0 km (4:54 / km)
You don't really expect to have issues with fluid replacement on a run in the early morning in Melbourne in the first week of August, but it was warm enough to be an issue today - 18 at 6am in Melbourne (and, astonishingly, 23.5 at 4.30am at Wilsons Promontory). In general the only thing that's changed in the conditions between this week and last is that it gets dark at 5.45 instead of 11.15.
First long(ish) run for quite a few weeks, from near work up along the Maribyrnong as far as Essendon. Working reasonably hard into the wind in the first half (with the payback coming later). A steady run on the whole although the lack of recent long work was evident; it would have been a struggle to get to 2 hours, but there's plenty of time ahead for that.
Lots of other people out on the warm morning, including a large contingent of teenage girls running (presumably one of the private schools has cross-country coming up).
Had a bit of knee soreness last night but I think that was a first-long-ride effect; it was a non-issue after the first couple of minutes of the run.
