Wednesday - 80 minutes + strides

Up in the darkness to meet Ben at Justin for the traditional Wednesday medium long run. Justin had been running for 55 minutes prior to this, so took off like a rocket! Went and did the North Head loop, then back down for a few laps along the beachfront. Feeling tired this morning, running 27km yesterday probably not helping the cause. The heart rate was low, averaging 123 beats per minute. I need to keep a close eye on this, as if it stays low like this (especially in the harder sessions) then I need to take a few easy days. 17.24km in 4:38's. Finished off with some strides along Pine Lane. Another beautiful sunrise coupled with a balmy winter's morning.
