Two runs, one beer, no worries.
A two-run day today, though it wasn't intended. I had scheduled a long slow 'un, but it was a sleep-in day and rather warm by the time I was ready to run, so I dragged the treadie in front of the telly and took off with the intention of running through the first session of the first day's play in the 3rd Australia -v- West Indies test in Perth. However it was that hot and humid that I was knackered after just 3km and pulled the plug. I had also been for a 5km walk so was still hot and bothered from that, which I guess accounted for said knackeredness.

However, after a excellent day watching some great Aussie batting it was somewhat cooler by evening so I headed out for a supplementary 5 kilometres, giving me a reasonable tally of 8km run, 5km walked for the day.

Mrs MLCM and I have now both entered a 9km event on Jan 3, so I'm officially in training for it, though I doubt I'll treat it as anything more than a training run. Why they settled on 9km is beyond me. Oh well, at least it'll be a PB. Smile

So am now quietly putting away my first and very likely only beer for the day*. Well-earned I think, too.

TdJ: The lovely sound of leather on willow as Watson, Katich and Hussey smacked the Windies around the park. Big Grin


*Actually, I had two. And some nuts. Sigh.
