4.6 miles: Botanical Gardens one field loop

Still not feeling to hot and was tired from another 1km in the pool yesterday. Did it in sets of 200m, which was ok, but had to resort to alternate 200m sets of front crawl and then breast stroke.

Tenke was critical of my attire, sugoi thick black long sleeve top and full tights. She was in a skimpy pair of shorts and a T. Hmm. I was dressed for yesterday and was soon too hot before we had even started running. Rolled up the sleeves and unzipped the top.

Felt sick as Tenke started talking about hill reps, but we never even did the airport hill, we were both tired and not feeling 100%. So we plodded along and chatted the 37mins and 41 seconds the route took us.

Last section the wind hit full on against. I nearly blew us back to the Botanical Gardens.

Now, that said we ended up doing 8:12 minute miles, which is actually alright for an easy run that felt slow. Well that's my take on it!
