Countdown to TM: Day 30...

Weighed in at 81.2kg

Blue skies when I left the house for a run but dark clouds to the south. Thought I was safe... But I was wrong!

Only soreness from core exercises the day before was a little aching around the sides. Water, nuts and dried fruit then off!

Felt really comfy running. Good pace, bang on 5min/km. Wanted to go for 10km if not 12km. Wind was bloody strong. And turned out it was blowing in a north easterly direction... Blowing the clouds right towards me! :(

At around the 4.5km mark, light drizzle turned into fairly heavy rain. :(
Main concern was iPhone getting wet. Need to get a more weather proof case for running or bring a zip lock bag and sacrifice listening to music.

10-15min later rain was lighter but still coming down. Had to get home though. Total of 6km for the run maintaining 5min pace.
Will take zip lock with me next time. ;)

Plenty of stretches at home and 33 push ups. Trying to increase total for bio-age testing which is happening in a couple of weeks.

Hoping for better weather tmrw and a long run.
