Finally listened to Tom's advise and contacted Gary yesterday. So will be now be joining the Manly Crew on Tuesday's and Thursday's from now on. No more solo sessions up at North Head. I do feel that those solo runs were a massive contributing factor behind burning out. Interestingly, I am really looking forward to tomorrow's session. Massive change in mindset, as I always dread my Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday sessions (they hurt so much more when you are all alone).
Anyway, back to this morning - legs were feeling more pleasant today, still far from great though. Met with Erika, Darren, Justin and Macca. We waited for Tom, but once the clock ticked 6:06am, we were off (he said he would be there at 6:04am)! Another humid and hot day ahead, no one particularly felt like pushing any sort of pace whatsoever. We ran the North Head loop, averaging 4:50's for most of it. Got back down, ran with the others to Pittwater Rd, finishing off the final two-and-a-half solo. Ended with 4:44's, but nice and easy. No strides today, legs still need a bit of time. Although not doing a second run yesterday definitely helped!
