Notes
Sunny, warm and light winds at start (20 C & SSW 17). Was not feeling great at the start (cold symptoms and achy) but decided to try the long run for the week. Started slow and was surprised at how my pace picked up after the first kilometer. Was really hot (hat came off before kilometer 2). By kilometer 6 I was feeling the effects of the heat and my pace started to slow a little. Huband called almost at kilometer 7 and felt hard to start legs moving again. Course turns back on it self at kilometer 8 and I ran into what felt like a wall of wind. Pace really suffered. Turn off onto the "track" around kilometer 12 which got me out of some of the wind. Took a walk break around kilometer 14 for a minute or so but managed to finish running the last 1.75k. Don't know if it was due to not feeling well at the start, the heat and then the wind or a combination of all three. But I finished!
