Bankstown Hidden Half

I ran it.

It was hilly.

It was fun.

Man, I really enjoyed it. 

Currently searching for more half marathons and upset to find Sydney Running Festival Half is sold out! 

So back to the river.  Seems this longer run one week, shorter "long" run the other week (work with me here) works quite well for me.  Took the legs out for a trot tonight in the Bondi B's.  I am going to have to train my calves to work in a totally different manner to get the most out of these shoes.  Tonight hurt.  It really did.  It wasn't pleasant.  I stopped for a stretch and it was better.  But I am convinced I am running in a totally different way.  At the moment I am thinking at least one run per week with these shoes until I work out how the hell I am supposed to place my foot. 

But, in summary, fantabulous run yesterday (in terms of enjoyment factor) shite in terms of how I fared in the placing (I wasn't last but that was only because there were about 26 75 year olds behind me), and I actually felt bloody wonderful today.  You can't beat that.
