5000m then easy...Day 116 & 117 of 133

another 5000m at the track last night...

it was the 5k championship and the rain held off for just about everybody running...

aimed to run a bit harder for this one, as a consequence my first k was about 4:10!...slowed a little in the middle but it was 26 seconds faster than last week's...

splits: 1:40 1:45 1:47 1:50 1:52 1:52 1:53 1:52 1:53 1:54 1:53 1:50 0:50

today's an easy 30 in conjunction with FkF was run in the rain...felt like I was running slowly but was still 11secs quicker through 5k than last week! apparently that's a good sign for the marathon...

start temp/humidity: 17.4/96% (apparent temp same)
finish temp/humidity: 17.8/96% (apparent temp same)
start time: 12:25pm
total distance: 5.55
total time: 30:00
avg pace: 5:24
total calories: 350
avg HR: 146

I've been walking Hodge in the mornings, only 15mins or so...today was the first of the three where it hasn't been raining...he's a funny little boy...

tomorrow I have a 10k time trial which I'll do over the Sri Chinmoy course then Sunday is my last and longest run before the marathon (3hrs)...no cycling sidekick so I'll have to put my music back on...

I've got golf planned both days - comp tomorrow and the last round of pennant Sunday (at Royal Canberra)...will be interesting with this weather...
