2 hours - Centennial Park

Hit Centennial Park at 7am to get half an hour in before joining up with the main squad at 7:30am at Mackay Oval. Followed the usual long run policy of not eating beforehand, and was a bit pecking through the first half hour. There weren't many there at 7:30am (just Easy Tiger, Brightshoes, Don Juan and Amjan), as one of the squad had gotten married the previous day, and the fleet of juniors seemed to be on a 60 minute run, and we would see the bulk of them at 8.

Felt okay until the 1 hour mark, where I started to feel a little light-headed and distant, and from 90 minutes it was a real grind, I fell off the back of the group at about 1:40, and shuffled the rest of the run out alone, with periodic sights of the group. Felt much better after a Powerade and a gel.

Just seemed to be short of fuel, and out of practice running on fat. Tough session, but good in the long run.
