Wednesday, February 18 2009 (Hills -14km)
The sky had no passion in it this morning, it was a tired and washed out grey colour. Instead of the apocalyptic storm that was predicted last night the heavens gave us just enough energy for a light drizzle this morning.
The dirty grey colour of the sky coloured my mood and this may explain why my run this morning was so ordinary. I ran to Ingleside to do a hill session along Cabbage Tree Road. Avoided the morning peak hour but still struggled to get into any kind of rhythm. It turns out that this route is quite busy, all the time. Speeding traffic, blind corners and not much road verge to run on, accompanied by drizzly rain all combined to end up in not very enjoyable run at all. Finished 15 km in 1:27 for an average pace of 5.48 min/km. Survived the hills and lucky not to have been hit by a car.
