Fitness Run

Time: 30 min
Distance: 5.1 kilometers

Comments: Not as exhilarating a run as yesterday, but understandably so since it is my first back-to-back day of workouts. I did the usual warm-up jog and then stretching and got down to it but it was work the whole way.Not necessarily hard work, in the sense of struggling to get it done, but more like keep-putting-the-next-foot-in-front-of-the-other kind of work. I never hit that <i>let's run!</i> point that came over me yesterday. Because as juiced as I was about signing up for the Sydney Marathon yesterday, the fact is I have four months of hard work in front of me.Went the other direction into Barranco for the first time since I have been back. Fewer runners and pedestrians but almost no traffic whatsoever as well.
Conditions:

Hour: 8 a.m.
Surface: concrete/asphalt
Warm-up:1 km run/stretching
Weather: cloudy
Temperature: 64 degrees
