Have slight lingering sore throat/sinusy on and off since a while, felt a bit worse today.

Hard up Wild Dog Glen again, then ran tempo around the Sheoak loop (15:07, good tough loop, chasing Strava segment which I got by 2 secs!), and back down the same way.

Waite loop - not as long as I had planned but waited for the crazy storm to pass which meant it was getting dark. Pushed hard up Wild Dog Glen and a few other bits, and finished with 5x40sec hill sprints. The wrist sensor on my new HR watch was telling me I was ‘easy’ effort at the top of Wild Dog. Probably not that reliable, or maybe hr actually was low because I hadn’t warmed up yet? Had a bush detour when I saw the silhouettes of 3 male deer with antlers standing on the track! (Someone was attacked by a deer here a few months ago so I was being cautious!)

Long run from Kensington Lookout to Horsnell Gully and then went a new way through Giles over to Norton Summit Rd (not fun running back down the road with almost no edge). Lots of up and down, some tracks quite rough. Often felt tough for the legs but HR not very high. Right foot/arch a bit achey again.
