3 Hours Sleep...

I stayed up to watch the finish of the 3rd Test at Old Trafford. Another amazing finish to a Test Match! I feel pretty rough now though, and not just from the lack of sleep! England missing out on the win could be a pivotal moment... Who'd have thought we'd see Australia celebrating a draw?

I haven't decided when to get back into the running. Probably should have a session tomorrow morning and Thursday and then a longer run on Sunday. I have to start using my Forerunner to optimise my training now - especially pacing myself over the long runs. Only 26 days to go until the Sydney Half Marathon.

I was sat on my arse for most of yesterday, so every time I did get up - my legs, especially my calves were feeling very stiff. They're OK now though.

I bought the newspaper on the way to work this morning - just to check my official time from the City to Surf. It's recorded as 76:34 - 1 second quicker than I thought, so that's a little bonus. 8025th place! So I must have overtaken more people than overtook me!

I'm a bit annoyed that I forgot to set the video to record the City to Surf coverage. The record holder (Steve Moneghetti) ran with a microphone and was commentating as he ran!

OK, time for some work...

Your time was very close to mine - 76.01. Guess that means will be seeing each other at the Half. Look for our CR caps.

Good running in the C2S!
I did 74:04 oficially so were on a par for this race.
