Saturday morning was a killer BOM said it was 26 deg and when I left home at 4:30am it felt more like 30 deg. I wanted a nice easy 20k and took no water !?!. By the time I hit 8k I had lost huge amounts of sweat and was looking left and right for a tap or fountain. The sky looked threatening but still no rain. I turned for home with a quick drink from a water fountain and decided to go a bit easier. I got home and lay on my front lawn for at least 10 min. The heat had really affected me, which made for good punishment. I tend to punish myself if I've had a few too many red wines the night before a run. Anyway 20.2k at 5:40 pace. Sunday morning was different. No wine, no heat and blue sky. What a nice morning for a run. With plenty of "gidday's and Goood morning's" from cyclists including a high five !, the run was great and I put a little into the middle k's to come home easy. All up 15.5k at 5:15 pace and then mow the grass.
Tonight an easy 21k and put in a little sprint the last k.
Take care.
