Got up from the sickbed and really wanted to do some speed work but simply wasn’t able, so was left just to do some easy ks for the morning.
Met up with Sharonne in Bondi Junction before running the 2.5ks to the park where we did the normal Sunday 10k loop and returning to the junction. Really struggled again and felt as weak as a kitten at times but happy to get some ks in the legs at least.
15ks all up at a very pedestrian pace of 4.49s
Will try to get out in the morning for some form of running with the guys – won’t be going the normal sub 4.30 pace that’s a certainty if I do join them, and thinking I may even be better running solo at my own pace as I try to shake this bloody man flu in time to be able to run the Half.
Stopped off on the way home for a coffee in Kenso and who should I find looking all relaxed, tanned, reading his papers already on his 4th coffee with NOT a care or child in sight (despite his wife away in Ireland)? BUT Old Kanser himself. Unfortunately still out with injury, Dave has got the trusty bike back out in order to maintain some sort of fitness. The disappointment of NOT running for Kanser is made all the easier in the fact that his beloved cycling top gets chance to get another airing (see below).
A rest day in the footy last night, but the knockouts start again on the morning with hosts Brazil taking on the impressive Chile, Could be a banana skin game this one and Kanser was telling me that he actually fancies the Chile’s to turn them over ?
Can see a close game but can’t see it happening
Timmy’s Tip – Take Brazil 2-1
Sad day today as I read that old ‘Soul Man’ Bobby Womack has passed away, Jeez, that takes me back to the days in the basement throwing shapes to the sounds of the Soul Train & Motown Magic. Many a fine hit were made but one that sticks with me was this classic – Love Wars
Cheers
