You'd never guess that it's winter. Whilst it was a little crisp early in the morning, the weather turned out to be perfect. Clear blue skies, a pleasant cool temperature for running and no breeze. For the 3rd week in a row I did my long run over trails in the Blue Mountains. Today I enjoyed the company of my mate Jim Perrett.
We started at the Rangers Hut (Glenbrook), jogged down to the causeway, up the steep hill on the other side out to Nepean Lookout and back to the causeway. Undulating trail most of the way. We jogged the first 3 km's, picked up to an easy pace for the next 7 km's and then settling into a steady clip (average 4:10's). Overall just under 27 km's in 2 hours.
We finished at the causeway and soaked our legs for a recovery session in the icy cold waters. 7 minutes of chill in all. We then walked backed to the Ranger's Hut.
Headed out later with my little 7 year old daughter for a nice bushwalk at Katoomba. Back home and pigged out with 2 and 1/2 bowls of chocolate gelato.
