Running long 2:30:00 [3] 21.4 km (7:01 / km)
long run from O'Reilly's to Binna Burra. I ran in a group with Rachel, Clare and Ali, and the boys (Olly, Mark, Blair and James) ran from BB to OR and we swapped keys in the middle. Very nice run, as always up there, but hadn't really recovered enough from last week for such an outing. The first half was fine, but then my L itb started hurting and I needed to walk a bit. had been worried about the inside of my L knee, but that didn't start hurting till later. itb was manageable if we walked the climbs (not many of those fortunately).
Clare's itb was similarly misbehaving, so we did the whole run along the border track, but Rachel and Ali ran the Coomera circuit track on the way back instead.
The last 30mins or so were pretty painful - pretty much everything that had been hurting at the end of last week's race joined the pain party. It was interesting how running for 2 1/2 hours seemed so short after running twice that long last week!
Lunch at Canungra was pretty good after.
