Event: Matilda Bay run
 

With Rachel and Amy up the railway trail for 25 minutes then turn around and back the same way. Wore the heart rate monitor to see if it was any higher than normal due to my cold. Below 70 walking out to the road, barely got over 130 pushing the pram up the railway trail, felt ok going as high as 151 up Bailey Rd near the end and back to 72 while stretching a few minutes after stopping. All seems good.

Still a bit sick but nice to get out for a run again after a few days off. Set out to do the 5k loop but saw a few runners from the hills group coming up O'Connor Rd just after I turned so I went back and ran down O'Connor Rd to the gravel pits to see if Phil was with them. Apparently he had been with them but he kept going a bit further up the Helena Valley. Legs feeling a lot fresher after a few days off, probably should try it sometimes when I'm not sick.

Same tempo run as 2 weeks ago out to Little Possums and back with a few run throughs on Moola Rd on the way back but did a bit less of it at tempo pace. Felt ok but had a few tired patches and my right heel started hurting after the Moola Rd efforts. Felt quite good on the run throughs, stayed with Rachel on the last one which felt super easy. Still thought Rachel seemed to be running quite fast and working hard so it made me feel pretty good but she probably wasn't so impressed by me going on about how easy it felt.

Lap of KP with Ivan after work. Pretty warm (35) so we took it pretty slowly but still felt tired and stiff.
