Had planned to run an easy 18 km's today in 85 mins or thereabouts, but ended up doing 30.7 km's instead. Not far from the planned turnaround point at Smithfield I felt a very strong urge to take care of business. Closest public toilet was another 2 km's ahead, so this necessitated a change of plans. Ended up doing the longer loop.
Was feeling sluggish at the start and could feel the residual from yesterday's 32 km marathon pace long run. After 6 or 7 km's of slow easy running was starting to feel pretty good and settled into a little over 4:30 pace. Picked up the pace to roughly 4:20's with 6 or so km's to go. Overall felt pretty cruisy.
30.7 km's in 2:17:30.
In total, that's 160 km's for the week / 11:45 hours of running, excluding strides and drills.
No need for a light pm session today.
