A cruisin' Friday night

Totally couldn't get up when the alarm went at 5:40am this morning, so an evening run it was.

I had the car today, so dropped the car at the Gladesville Ferry stop for EliseS to pick up. Hit the road at about 5:30pm. Felt a little stiff through the first 500 metres but seemed to flow okay from there, heading north through Huntley's Point, up across the Tarban Creek bridge and into Hunter's Hill, turning back and retracing my steps at the little park just next to the hospital there. From the ferry stop it was up to Victoria Road, east to the pedestrian bridge, and then set sail west along Victoria Road for home.

Made a point of ignoring the watch and just running relaxed, so it was a bit of a surprise to hit Victoria Road and see the pace at 4:40 per km.

I was a little under time going past home, so ran up and back, putting myself over time. Oops.

Ended up at 6.5km in 30:24 (4:41 per km pace), ave HR 126.

CR 5k challenge tomorrow. Feeling reasonably good at the moment, so should be on for a pretty big PB. Sub 17:20 would be nice, as that would suggest a 10k time of 36 flat, according to McMillans.
