Sunday Run...Running like a Fairy?

A late start for me in the park today after a late night watching the Games as well as feeling generally tired - not to mention the phone calls and texts at all hours from certain people at Aine's 30th last night.
Back into Centennial and continued on with the Woollarha Hill 6k loops x 3, getting a bit bored with this now but it is a good session as i get to work the hill on every lap about the 4.5k mark
Armed with the ipod and some great tunes it seemed easy yet again as i completed the loop in 26.41 (4,26s), Perfect winters morning and the park was packed today and there was even a Half Marathon on in there care of the Hare Krishna Sri Chimnoy team going around. I held the 2nd lap a little quicker and to my surprise even managed to knock the third lap down further.
Times for each lap were
26.41 (4.26 pace)
26.18 (4.23)
25.37 (4.16)
All up 18.2ks in 79.30 averaging 4.23 for the morning so not a bad effort on the back of yesterdays session and things are tipping along nicely hopefully.
One more big week then will take it easy as it's only two weeks to go before City to Surf.
I think the beer ban is working for me and I've felt as if i have made some improvements over the past 3 weeks, although could have done without the texts last night from the team - Expect it from the Irish Cartel but even Sonya and J-Fen were in on it as well, With message coming through from Fenton that i run like a FAIRY (and i thought he was my mate? )

Clued to the telly trying to take in as much as possible, although made a promise to myself NOT to watch Channel 9 with there terrible ONE EYED coverage........Its embarrassing, Eddie (the Cyclops) Maguire is the worst although that Carl is not far behind, as for the female face of the team Leila McKinnon we all know she knows bugger all and is only there care of head man at 9 ... David Gyngell (CEO) her husband.
Thank God for FOX is all I'll say  :)

Day off tomorrow, although might try to squeeze a swim in at some stage if i can , before returning on Tuesday for another killer session :)

Cheers
