Easter Sunday Run 14ks

Armed with my Bic Biro and autograph book i relinquished my chance of the Easter Egg hunt and it was down to Centennial early Sunday morning after i received a call from Kanser telling me he was running with HuRTS star and lead feature and story man in this months 'Run 4 for Your Life' Magazine Steve 'Wildman, Norman, Westie, D Cup' Thurston, so i thought i would get my signed copy and join the boys for a few ks.
Pretty easy start to the run as we ticked the ks of chatting away working around 4.32 pace , that was until about the 8k mark then Kanser for some reason decided to pick the pace up that saw me drop back and run about 10 metres behind the boys. Completed the normal 10k loop that we do and continued on with them for another flat loop (4ks) before calling it a day with just short of 14ks for the morning in 60.38 average pace 4.28s
Happy with that and the Achilles felt OK whilst out there but it is a little sore again today so will rest up now until Tuesday and hit the road again.
NO Breaky or invite from Kanser, Not sure whether he was scared I'd eat all the kids chocolate eggs or that HuRTS Royalty Stevie T has replaced me at the table these days? :)
Afternoon beers went down a treat , and helps when you know you don't have to get up at 5am for work on the Monday.

Easter Monday, A good mate is in town who is now living in Singapore who just happens to be a 'Gun Swimmer' (just done the crazy Rottnest Island 19.7ks swim in 6 hours) so arranged to meet up down at Cloey Beach early doors for a swim. Beautiful morning down there and just decided to do 4 'Ins and Outs' to the buoy that is sitting about 250 metres out from the beach. Worked pretty hard for it as my mate was cruising alongside seemingly talking to the fish as he swum by it was that easy for him.

Tuesday, I'll be hoping to get out with the HuRTS boys at lunch but will decide in the morning after seeing how i feel.

Cheers
