Christmas Run

Saturday - well i did it - a long run on Christmas morning!
Also by far the longest run i've ever done. 18.4 km which
is about 5 km's further than i've run previously. I thought at
times that i wasn't going to make it as two thirds of the run
was uphill. I decided to have a run over the Knox Half
Marathon course without the last 5 km's or so. I ran from
my house to where the start is and kept running to the
part where you start the last 5 km loop. That would be
enough for today as i didn't want to push my luck too much
and get an injury. Right now i feel good and am pleased
that i have clocked up over 47 km's running for the week.
Now to the business of eating and drinking too much i guess!

Loose plan for tomorrow - exchange a couple of my presents
that are the wrong size (fancy bike riding gear!) and hopefully
get down to the aths track late in the afternoon for some
intervals. **********MERRY CHRISTMAS***********

ps. now that i've done a long run on Christmas Day i must
surely qualify as a HARDCORE runner now eh !!
