Good Friday AM
I'm not sure what the long weekend will bring my way so I decided to go for my long run today. I woke up at 7am and headed out the door with a plan to see how far away 25km would get me from home.
My route took me down Lygon St to Victoria, then I headed for Hoddle St. I walked up the Punt Rd hill and then continued onto St Kilda.
It was a nice morning, not as perfect as it has been lately but still lovely running weather. At St Kilda I headed down Beach Rd. So many cyclists were out today, and I enjoyed checking out the legs, bikes and kits of the bunches as they went past.
25km got me to Sandringham Football Club where I stopped, bought a Gatorade from the Caltex and headed inland to find a train.
An hour, a train and tram ride later and I was very cold and very glad to jump into a warm shower at home.
Not surprisingly my legs and glutes were very sore today so running was hard work. I needed pretty frequent water and rest breaks at the lights but I'm still happy I got through it.
Islands in the Stream kept me good company during kilometres 8-20!
