Long Run ~~~ Workout #3

Well, You never can tell how a run is going to turn out!  Or even why!  Running from an 'iffy' start to an "all done in" finish completely wrecked.  I had a bit of a tummy problem all the way - but I've had plenty of those in  the past and carried on - so I can partly blame that I suppose, but this was debilitating, total all-over body tiredness and I have never felt anything like that before, never so completely 'bankrupt'!

 Except for a glass of icy water brought out to me by a friend in one of the properties on Diamond Fields Road, I think I might have crawled into one of the wombat holes for the night! I called in on two other friends looking for mercy but no one home in  either place.   It was my first experience of overwhelming physical and mental inertia!  Why, so bad, I wonder?

At home, I moaned and groaned to Amy and Oscar who looked quite disinterested, I showered, forced down a bowl of soup, went to bed and slept soundly for two hours!  I simply cannot understand myself at all!!  And only 3 weeks till Fisher's Ghost 5km.
