April 12 - Burke Road to Collingwood
Had a friend's birthday BBQ tonight in Collingwood, so thought I'd throw a long slow run in prior. Ran from Ivanhoe along the Yarra to Burke Road and then crossed to the south side of the river and followed it back along the freeway to Yarra Boulevard to Studley Park Road to Johnson Street and finally down Oxford Street.Measured at 17km's so was a nice hit out. Felt very good cruising along at just under 6 minute k's, listening to SEN on the walkman. I can push this run out to home and have a 25km long run which will be a good challenge. Running this in 98 minutes all up was good to get the lungs going.
Luckily I did a decent run as some easter egg, choc-honeycomb ice cream and a few bevvies were consumed!
I'll join in with the Start to Finish Wednesday nights, and a few Niketowns on Mondays as well. Will then probably do a long run on Thursdays or Saturdays. Well anyway that's the current plan.
