250...

So, another day, another run. Headed out to McLeans Island, to do a lap of the track out there. I thought I would head up the River Track while I was there too, in spite of it being closed (and somewhat fenced off...) to add some more distance to my run, as I didnt really feel good enough to warrant doing two laps! I understood why the River Track was closed when I realised that the Waimack river had decided that one of it's branches needed to go over the track completly! Which didnt help, so I headed back to the track. However, I also learned that the rain yesterday meant that some areas of the normal track were flooded too! So much for not getting my feet wet, and a couple of quick creek crossings (not really alot of water, but more than none!) I was at the end of the run. All up just a gentle 12.51km, done in 56'51". Not slow by any definition, and the key thing is another 12km done this week.

So far my plan of having 10+ km runs as my everyday sort of run has been going well, I have only run less than 10 km twice so far this year (the rest day, and Jan 2nd when I ran 8 km), so my plan of trying to get plenty of km's done early in the year, in preperation for the busy year is working perfectly!

The 250 km is up, taking 19 days and 19'36". Not bad, not bad at all.
