Wednesday - 80 minutes + strides

A complete change of scenery today, which can prove difficult for OCD-types like myself (and others). A good turn out with Tom, Macca, Richard, Erika and Ben. We met at Queenscliff lagoon at 6:04am before heading uphill to the Warringah Aquatic Centre via Allambie Heights. I have only ever driven up there, so didn't realise how long that climb goes for! Macca must have a had a coffee or three pre-run, as he was pushing the pace more than what I would have liked for a Wednesday morning. From the Aquatic Centre, we crossed to the other side of Wakehurst Parkway, ran to Seaforth before heading back to God's Country via the outer edge of Manly Dam. Slight drizzle the entire way, but it looks like we largely avoided any downpours. A solid run for a Wednesday, 17.5km in 4:35's. Finished with some strides.
