Nice run from Hall to One Tree Hill on the centenary trail, with a bit of an extension to meet the point I'd got to coming from the other direction in Forde a few months ago. Quite warm and sunny, but nowhere near as horrendous as the last few days. Then had a BLT, lemonade and coffee from the cafe in Hall.

Very early run for a weekend but, again, good to avoid the heat of later in the day. Gracie and I parked up at Redders and I ran home via Mugga and the Brae.

Made it out early again today though - well worth it, as I got a lovely 15degrees instead of the 41 forecast for later. Usual Davo loop for the 3rd time this week - also the fastest (although all were running comfortably so doesn't mean much). Sky seemed especially clear today - very good for seeing a long way from the summit.

Had to go to Bunnings this morning, so forced to run in the heat again - fortunately temperatures plummeted from 40 to 37.5 before I started :s Wasn't actually that bad though - went round the East Basin, which is fairly exposed to the sun, but also exposed to the wind and is very flat. Didn't even notice that I ran past my planned water fountain stop as I chatted to Shep who happened to be passing me on his bike at the time.

Had to admit defeat and do an early morning run to avoid the heat. And very nice it was too, I'm loathe to admit. Up Davo, as per usual.

Steady run in the heat through some bits of Mugga and Callum Brae. Had to have a couple of stops on the way back as I was suffering a bit.

Standard Davo loop after work. Bloody hot, although trying to make the most of this being the coolest day of the week :s
