Wowza, i forgot that 12 miles is actually a relatively long way when you havent run that far in a year! 

8:45 pace, over Anzac bridge then to the Iron Cove run. GrEat weather, but about three quarters of the way through i just got kind of tired. Not used to running three days in a row, so good thing tomorrow is a rest day! At least the cough is finally gone ☺

Easy miles, interrupted by A FLASHFLOODHURRICANE. Sydney weather is weird sometimes. Sunny, sunny slightly breeze, a few drop of rain then the heavens open, and dump 20mph winds, with horizontal floody type rain. 

Felt kind of hard core running through it though....

Easy miles, around 8:30 pace. Was quite warm, and this pace felt a little more challenging than my usual trotting along.

Have set my goal race though - Gold Coast Half marathon. Fast course. Possible sub130 this time? Am I already jinxing myself?

Easy miles around Pyrmont and Blackwater Bay. Beautiful morning; one of the first crisp ones. "Winter" in Sydney is coming. Which means the days might get to the mid-50s hehe.

Pace around 8:40 I think. Felt very easy.

Just a note to self: feeling a little something something on my foot around where my cuboid SFx was. Not even really pain, just awareness of it. Took a day off yesterday to rest it, felt it slightly on my run today. Getting rid of the heels at work, and stretching my calves/soleus (which are very tight). Not too worried, as I was doing a lot more when I got my sfx, but just keeping an eye on it.
