Another all to familiar morning in Sydney with heavy overnight rain and a wet and windy morning, Legs felt absolutely shot especially in the quads after Sundays tough run. Had to do two running classes with my groups first for 16ks in total before taking myself over to McKay Oval for a some 1k reps. Wasn't even sure if i could do any so was happy to roll around and knock 4 out.
Times were not fast (or flat out) but about the best i could muster today, rolling every 5 minutes, and were:
3.26
3.24
3.21
3.20
20ks for the morning - happy with that, seeing i thought I'd be lucky to run at all.
Very quiet in the park this morning, with all the soft Triathlon cyclists staying in bed due to the rain , although did see Marshmallow Man (Clyde) continue to call my name each time he completed a lap for some reason?, Saw Enda alot later (when it stopped raining ) just floating around, and congratulated him on his top Husky effort on the weekend, also congrats to HuRTS lady Sonya who smashed it down there and managed a podium finish i am told. Did see Benny St cruising on the inner lap as well.
I see the HuRTS hierarchy have come up with a new set and slightly altered training sessions working on a 6 week turnaround, some of the old favorites remain as do some of the dreaded ones. Not sure about some of them to be honest, but that's just a personal thing and i can do my own sessions on these occasions.
Biggest NEWS though is that it looks like the HuRTS training team has gone big time with its very own website,check it out http://hurtsquad.com/ don't think there is much on there at the moment , but may be worth keeping an eye on (especially once Mikey starts his selling posts)
There is talk about getting members to write articles etc... on races and things of interest, Kanser is first up i am told, going to tell us about his injuries over the past 12 months .........Best grab a seat, it could take a while.
Cheers
Great effort from Enda 78 min run leg.
