Late again. Didn't get to start until about 6.35. So ran solo until the 22k mark when I met up with Dave and we soldiered on to the end. Hard but enjoyable on a crisp calm autumn morning.

SMH Half May 19th 2013
Entered at last minute when the organisers a sent me an email offering discount and preferred start.
Perfect conditions. Cool, still, sunny. Had a goal of running 4 min k's. Ran 10k in 39.30, and 14k in 56, 18k in 72 and then lost 2 minutes in the last 3 k to come in at 86.30.
I realised afterwards that I had been led astray by the positioning of some of the distance flags. No big deal.
I felt good afterwards. But some doms after the next few days.
On Tue night I had a late meeting at North Ryde. So I bought some cheap shorts and shirt at Mac Centre and jogged down the Striders Lane Cove course and back in the moonlight.
No run Wed/Thu and Fri a killer run to Lapa and back with H who is coming back to her best

San Diego - Cowles Mountain
After Boston I flew down to San Diego and stayed in the Best Western on El Cajun Boulevard. This was next to my old friend Adrienne and Amit's home. Together we had a fabulous weekend. The highlights were visiting old town and a great visit to Helen and Glen house and there beautiful kids in Pt Loma. On Sunday we were joined by Cindy and later we all went to see Paul Kelly at the House of Blues. it was a great time.
I managed one run up to Cowles Mountain but unfortunately the trasil to the top was closed for maintenance so it was strictly a road run only of about 15km. Pretty slow as my legs were dead.
I also had a great visit to Balboa Park with Adrienne and Kalyan.
