run 31:48 [2] 6.81 km (4:40 / km) +110m 4:19 / km
shoes: Saucony Cortana

Least motivated run of the last 2 weeks, but felt OK once I was out there. Right knee much the same. Ran with heel raises in for the first time today as a couple of times I have felt some tightness on the outside of my heel. Nowhere near the achilles yet, but I seem to remember that being an early warning sign.

Still, overall I'd say that removing the raise from the orthotic doesn't seem to be casuing any big issues. I think I've only run 40km in back to back weeks once this year, so I reckon I've pulled up OK so far.

Left foot is still not quite 100% but is better than 2 weeks ago.

shoes: Asics Kayano 17

Was a bit short of time this arvo, so headed out on the regular loop just a bit harder than normal. Which was pretty pointless given that it was a 30 minute loop anyway, so when I got back home a bit early, I just had to run up and down the street a bit to get to the 30 minute mark.

Evening run north from Trigg beach. Hard not to push the pace a touch as I was on bitumen for the whole run and not feeling sick any more, but also conscious that it was only 2 hours post Macca's snack, so didn't really want to rick an allergic reaction.

Lateral left quad is still uncomfortable but not getting any worse. Small tender spot on right knee that I will have to look after.

Legs must have been looking pretty amazing tonight. Got yelled at by a few car fulls - some appreciative, some questioning my sexuality. I wonder what possesses people sometimes...

run 34:15 [3] 7.24 km (4:44 / km) +47m 4:35 / km
shoes: Asics Kayano 17

From Lake Gwelup around Lake Karrinyup golf course.

Pretty hot. Felt pretty meh. Breathing wasn't great.

I has gone from never wanting to ride a bike without training wheels to a complete solo lap of Lake Gwelup in a week. I think according to tRicky definitions I now have 2 children, or both my children are people, or something...

Back to old faithful one last time before heading home. Relaxing trip until we got to that train station that I can't remember the name of right now but I think starts with C. From there it was crap all the way home.

All my running down here this week totals about the same as 1 long run I did last time I was down here. Oh well.

Nose starting to clear up today. Should be on the mend as long as the chest stays clear.

Finally went the other way. Even through in a tiny bit on the Bib track. Really should have done all my running down here on it, but I wasn't mentally prepared for the wet shrubs hanging over the track and all the cobwebs.

Getting up in the morning (and having a cold) does not lead to great creativity. Same run again.
