Goldilocks goes on the long run
6.30 am, 2 hours 45 minutes, Moore & Centennial Park
I got out just after first light. It was fairly quiet around Darlinghurst apart from the usual coffee drinkers and street criminals, then I ran into unexpected traffic at Moore Park golf course: two other runners on the 16th fairway in the distant fog. First time this year I've seen any other runners on my course. Natuarlly I gave chase in hot pursuit to catch these intruders. I had to pick up the speed with siren wailing to close the gap. They ran around the perimeter of the course, and when I did catch them, I didn't know them from a bar of soap.
At Centennial Park I ran into Mohammed and Sparkie, and lifted the pace again. I was tiring by the time the main group started at 8am. I stuggled after that, and it was a battling effort. Probably better than last week, but just.
I'll be back on patrol tomorrow morning.

So... a handy lead... you must have picked either Geelong or Freemantle...if it was Geelong, that one point turns into a three point lead for you!
Congrats on the consistent training - I still don't know how you can run so early mid week during winter, although I suspect out our way we're around 4 degrees cooler...
Next they will be eating your bowl of lentils!!!
Looong run for a C2S prep - sure you are not doing 12' the day before?
If you run around wearing blonde wigs is it any wonder those runners were keeping their distance. A good long run though.
Like 2P said long run for C2S prep but i can't talk a haven't had a long run for weeks.Yikes!I'm off.

I noticed you tipped Soapflake to beat my son at S2S, making it two years in a row.
I guess he didn't have a big enough heart for that final hill.
