MLR at Manly (20km) + strides

Just Tom and myself this morning - with intermittent guest appearances by Robbie & Quentin. Both of us were quite sore from our respective sessions yesterday (Tom had a monster session of 800's and a tempo, followed by a recovery run), so the pace was nice and easy. So much better running with others - probably one of my favourite runs now (used to hate Wednesday's with a passion). Just the North Head loop this morning. Apparently Quentin almost had a tree branch drop onto him when he was up there minutes earlier - couldn't believe the size of it! 4:27's all up. Was tempted to follow Tom for some quick hill sprints, but time wasn't being my friend so just ended up finishing with my normal strides.
