My calves are sore.

Long run from my place with Clare, Richard and Tamsin from Toowong up Coot-tha via Slaughter Falls but by myself for the start and end. Felt pretty comfortable but didn't feel like I had much pace left in reserve. Beautiful view over the city from the lookout. The sun was shining over a blanket of cloud, through which only the CBD and a few other buildings were poking through. I'm tired now and keen for a nanna nap!

PTE 4.2
EPOC 147

My watch says it's going to take 71 hours to recover from this run.

Commute run from school to work and my first with my new toy, a Suunto Ambit 2S, which arrived yesterday morning. It took no time at all to find some satellites and it started recording HR straight away without hiccups. It's nice when stuff just works. I uploaded to the Suunto Movescount website from work. It's quite nice looking, shows plenty of data, except total ascent, which is weird, but there's seems to be a real lack of any supporting documentation. I had my worst fears about GPS altitude confirmed - I'm pretty sure I didn't run up a 40m hill along Coro Dr! It also thinks I spent 10min of this run at maximum intensity, which is silly, so I'll have to adjust the HR zones.

PTE 3.9
EPOC 109

Easy jog from the hairdresser's to home.

Finally purchased my first GPS watch! Now I'm excitedly waiting for it to be delivered and checking the delivery status every 5min. Training unfortunately lost out to work today
