Training on track

Easing into the taper before the Melbourne HM by reducing my Sunday long runs. Last Sunday ran 1.41 at a reasonable pace, averaging 4.30s. Yesterday joined the others at UQ & ran 1.24 (heading thru' St Lucia & Chelmer), about 17 ks.

Have been hitting the pace sessions pretty hard & the knee seems to be up to it. Also using our Wednesday tempo runs to keep the pace up. Last Wednesday ran the river loop anti-clockwise. At the 36 min mark (nearing the green bridge) I wanted to pick it up & probably ran around 4min ks back to the Ship Inn (via Annerley Rd). Got back earlier than expected so had to go for another k to make it 58 mins. Also managed a Saturday run - 1st for ages. 35 mins with T including 5x 1min fast on the Yeronga Park grass.
