Getting faster

Ran the corporate cup yesterday in 17:33, 38s faster than last fortnight! I know last time I was coming off some illness and only a bit of running, but that is a fair increase. I felt a lot better too and my heart rate was 9 bpm lower. Now all I have to do is maintain this improvement for the rest of the series. I'm feeling pretty good about the half too. Bayden seems to be pretty excited. Hopefully we'll be able to reach his goal of 1:45. We're going to have a run tomorrow to get a feel for pace.

That's great news Dave. It sure is a good feeling when things start to fall into place again.

yep, north CC is on alternate Wednesdays from the City and the course is shorter.

38 second faster: very good!

good to see you didn't suffer too much after those last couple of big weeks Dave.

btw - the Walkman phone seems to last for 3-4 days before needing recharging - and that usually includes at least 1 or 2 runs/rides (x 1hour+) with the MP3 going. It's great having the MP3 playing while you're using the other functions on the phone too, like the calculator, metric converter, organiser, games(!), and even google earth (which I downloaded the other day - very cool).

My 'Interconnectedness' was disconnected.

You're getting back there Dave.
