The schedule called for 36k today, and since I'm on call and we're most likely to get calls in the afternoon (not that I've had a call this time), the percentage play to get my run done uninterrupted was to run in the morning, and with the BRRC on today and...]]> Sun, 08 Jul 2012 05:52:00 +0000 A couple of easy runs, and QR XC 5k

I'm on a training course for work out of Rocklea this week which means a later start and finishing a bit later.  It's a little fiddly but you know what runners are like with routine.

I was fairly beaten up on Monday after the 36, and a bit niggly at...]]> Wed, 20 Jun 2012 10:33:00 +0000
