Dancing in the streets

7.00am, 40 minutes easy, Botanical Gardens

A pretty cruisy run in the new asics DS trainers which feel a bit thinner and faster compared with the 2100s and the 1100s. It's time to get used to a bit more road running again, since I'm not going to find too many 45 km trail runs around the eastern suburbs.

For an easy run I set a pretty solid pace since I'm not saving myself for tomorrows striders 10km, and the recovery from that bush bash in the blue mountains feels closer to complete.

At the moment I can't think of a big target race until city to surf. As much as I enjoy the run, the SMH 1/2 doesn't float my (show) boat at the moment, probably since I've done 4 of them before. Although this year I should be the fittest I've ever been to tackle the course. Looks like I've got a bit of time to play with. In the meantime I'm sure I will find something else to keep me dancing in the streets.

Why don't you try swinging a swaying across the nation in something a bit longer?

Good luck on Saturday; sorry I won't be there to act as support crew but the Minersrun has priority this weekend; he's doing some little race or something.

Hey DJ, seen as your true calling is off road stuff, why not try the GH80 in May? <-)

You have till Monday morning when the entries open online Mate. Run a sub 80 at the half I think and you would probably get C2S preferred if you don't have already. Worth a thought, better than the 2 hr line up.
