Cold windy and cold !

The temperature must have been about minus 5 and no matter what layers of clothes you put on, it made no difference. I did have Wednesday night off and I wanted to try going out a bit harder to see how the legs felt.
I set out to do the 15k track and pushed harder the first 4k.
Then a twinge (a medical term for sore muscle type strain thingie) started in my left leg just below my calf muscle.
So I backed off the pace and headed up the hill for the next 2k. My twinge started to feel better so I got into a nice comfortable pace and headed home.
All up 15.3k at 4:51 pace.
I was happy with that!
My bosses wife runs with Intraining and on Wednesday night next week they are having their time trial and I might get a chance to get out there and see how I go.
For those of you thinking about doing the Lake Manchester trail run next year this is the elevation map. Even thought its a 33k run you will see mine was about 39.3k. Forgetting that the first hill is almost vertical and the next a doozy. Train hills for this run or you will regret it.
Ha and take a map, compass, epirb, two days supply of food,water and a gps.
No only jokes, just don't follow me.
