Ironic

The price of petrol is now just under two dollars per litre! I'm driving 57.2 km to Huntly to run 21.1 km, then driving 57.2 km back again!

I was going to go with my family, but some of our farm staff are having a few days well needed rest, so Brian is going to have to stay at home. I was also going to take a Ngatea friend, but she is planning to do visit friends after the event.

If the price of petrol wasn't $2.00 per litre, I wouldn't otherwise have thought about it!

But I will finally get to meet Sub6 and his family, along with Kathy and the Saint, which will be rather cool!

My last run was Thursday night, which was a game of hockey, I might just go for a long slow walk this afternoon. I'll go and check out the new farm layout.

It's a gorgeous autumn day today, it should be great tomorrow too.

I've found a website that gives you km splits - http://www.runnersworldonline.com.au/Default.aspx?s=paceband-calculator . The idea is to put coverseal over it and wear it as a wrist band. I've printed two - one for 2 hours and one for 2 hours 10 minutes! Might wear both! I tend to go a bit too fast at the start, so if I do, I might try and push myself for a 2 hour finish. That would be really neat!
