Workout #3...Long Run

Roses growing wild alongside Old South Road

I did today's run out and back on Old South Road, passing the "Mittagong Historic Aerodrome" so as to avoid too many hills.  A very humid mid morning with storms approaching which was the reason I did this workout today instead of tomorrow.

Program  : 13km @ HMP + 12 sec/km (i.e. 7:50m/k based on most recent 5km time)

Results: 13km in 1:36:32
Avg. Pace =  7:20 m/k....good!
5km splits 35:10;  38:21 (7:47, 6:59, 7:03)
AHR 123 (77%); MHR 141 (89%)


The only difficulty today was the few hills; otherwise this was a very comfortable run....and that's the three Key Workouts for the week done.  35km total unless I do more on a cross training day tomorrow and that'll depend on whether or not the predicted thunderstorms arrive.  I managed the paces for the three workouts....Hurrah!
