Running race (Sydney 10) 32:59 [5] 10.0 km (3:18 / km) +84m 3:10 / km
shoes: Nike Streak 6 (Flymesh Upper)

New 10k PB and 5k PB all in one race! Really felt like I was just struggling for pace so if I want to get this time down I'll have to do more speed work. Really happy with that result though.

Running warm up/down 27:16 [2] 4.5 km (6:04 / km)
shoes: Nike Streak 6 (Flymesh Upper)

Running warm up/down 13:51 [3] 2.4 km (5:46 / km)

Running (Glenrock) 35:06 [3] 7.1 km (4:57 / km) +155m 4:27 / km

Tested my new Inov-8 xtalon 225s. They're pretty good but need a bit of movement to get them loosened up properly. My body didn't feel that great during this run. Took a break half way through.

Running intervals (16 * 200) 34:00 [5] 7.3 km (4:39 / km)
shoes: Nike Streak 6 (Flymesh Upper)

16*200 on the new track which hasn't officially opened.

slowest was 32 fastest was just under 30. While I'm doing these reps literally as fast as I can get my ass around 200m I'm thinking that there have been high schoolers that have broken 4 minutes for the mile which is basically 8 of my 200m reps strung together as fast as I can do them. What makes it more insane is that at that pace they look so casual.

Running warm up/down 17:50 [3] 3.5 km (5:06 / km)

Note
(injured)

got a little twinge yesterday I think from over pronating while running down the dunes. Then it got a little worse with today's workout on the track. I've entered the sydney 10k which is on Saturday so I might just do nothing tomorrow and something really light on friday. Aiming to get around 33 mins for this 10k. Not sure how realistic that is considering how little speed work I've gotten in but I'll give it a crack.

Running 53:35 [3] 9.3 km (5:46 / km)

Went up to Stockton sand dunes to have a look at Bob's Farm and see if it was at all runnable even in full body cover. It isn't.... absolutely thick and spiky as which is a real shame because it's a perfect training map in terms of quality of the area and location.

Alas... it's just not possible to run through really.

But I went for a run on the sand dunes and I just keep thinking about mapping them. The bigger dunes would obviously be pretty easy to navigate but I could just imagine a long distance on those dunes with controls hidden in little depressions and behind bushes and behind knolls/hills and it would be a huge physical challenge with enough nav to make it interesting.
