Ran 43km today incl 33k this morning and 10k recovery run this afternoon. Unfortunately the rest of the week was fairly mediocre due to an unexpected and very rushed trip to Sydney due to work. Long hours and staying in a very dodgey area on the Hume Highway made running near on impossible.
Week in Summary 72.6km@4:44
Tues 9k@4:35 Missed Intervals due to work
Wed 6.5k@4:55 Easy run before flight to Sydney
Sat 14.1k@4:25 incl 10k@4:15
Sun am 33k@4:45 Long run from Matilda Bay , ran about 25k with Epi who is running really well after his knee injury. Started off quite quickly and had to intentionally slow down a bit as we wanted to make sure we covered the 30k+ run as that was the sole purpose of the run. Quick stop at 18k for drink fillup, really struggled between 23-25k due to hammies and groin being sore. Quick stretch at 25k really helped and allowed me to run the last 8k with only a bit of discomfort. Great running with Epi again and made the run a whole lot easier than if I'd gone solo.
pm 10k@5:06 Bit sore to start off with but overall pretty happy with the day as it unfolded. Have the long skins on at present for some recovery.
Would love to get in a decent week next week, fingers crossed.

That's a super weekend Rob with almost 60k covered in two days, including some MP stuff the day before the long run.
Well done!
Wow...
That's a hell of a day, talk about making up for a slow start to the week
What sling said. very good weekend warrior effort after the other priorities in Sydney taking precedence. Taking it easy during the week, hopefully will settle any niggles. good wins by both WA teams. I was a bit annoyed at the lack of media coverage, but glad we won by 47 points. heard that our Mob have some big plans for Fremantle Oval in the future. Saw Wirra is playing for East Perth (possibly with Lovett) this year...Nick N. was outstanding, and the ruck combo of Cox and Nick N. promises to be a major weapon of the Eagles this year!
Saw Duncan Pugh have a horror ride in the 2 man bobsled at the Winter Olympics this weekend. Im pretty sure I ran 400m against him at little athletics, and was on the same state teams as him on at least one occasion...
That's a huge day - hope you have a rest/recovery day today.
