Recovery part II, and some good news in the post

Particularly tired this morning, so another evening run (45 mins of recovery) it was. Quite sore in the hips from the lunges yesterday, too, and didn't feel fantastic in the afternoon after a pretty ordinary day from an eating point of view. Fell asleep in the bus on the way home after walking from St Leonards to Lane Cove after work.

Arrived home to find a letter from the City 2 Surf confirming my preferred start! That lifted spirits considerably, although bed was looking a far more enticing prospect than the battered Kayanos I dutifully retreived from under it.

Hit the road, heading east along Victoria Road and made a point of not looking at the watch. I had preprogrammed in the turnaround alarm, which came up a bit later in Hunter's Hill than I expected. I seemed to be rolling along okay if a little unenthusiastically, and made it home in 45:22 (even splits tonight) for 9.56k, in 4:45 per km pace. Run loosed the hips up a bit.

I'll tackle the new route to work via the Bay Run again tomorrow, but am not expecting miracles, and will also tackle the core stability hitout again as well. It never ends.

Congratulations on getting the preferred start. You have certainly done the hard work this year to earn it. Good luck on the day.
