Whew what a week - so far

First update - Saturday 26, I decided to do a training run fairly close to the conditions to be encountered in Morroco. Left home at about 11:30 am and ran about 37Km through Lota, Manly & Wynnum along the foreshore and other areas for 4hrs and 20 mins (had about 30 mins rest during this time). Practiced using NUUN tablets in some of the water. Drank 5.3 ltrs!!!!! during the time out and still lost 1.5kgs in weight????



Monday - in order to catch up on holidays for the trip to Morocco I am working a bank holiday - I decided to run into and home from work - about 21 Km each way. Going home was hard into the sea breezes and still hot and humid. Felt tired.



Tuesday - drove to work, left the car there and ran home (21km) not as windy but still about 26degC and more that 80% humidity.



Wednesday - ran to work (guess how far) even more humid but cooler. Now very buggered!!!



Since Saturday morning have run 120km - I need a rest, no more until Friday morning at the PCRG session to get a "speed" workout.

Cheers
