There's some running to be done in those hills!

The advantage of being on holidays is that you can get out on the training 'paddock' whenever you like. This of course allows for the occasional later training session in the mornings. (a positive) however a negative to this (particularly with the Brisbane weather) is that it is a lot more hot and humid, which of course was the case this morning.
Leaving home at 8.50am for a 60-75min run...to add to this I'll have to admit being a little (very) un fit at the moment didn't help the cause.

The stats for the run looked like this:

Session Reflections:
  • The obvious...it was hot and humid....help a little with removing with some of kilos :-)
  • Overall fitness...crap!
  • The back is holding up very well.
  • There is a lack of strength (the endurance type) in the legs.
  • Going that late and not eating before the run didn't help much
  • It was good to be back in the forest....the hills will again become my friend/s.
  • Ice bath recovery.....not bad at all....the ice doesn't last long.
