Street-O @ Belmore Parklands

No rest for the wicked - Wednesday night is Street-O night. I wasn't at all sure whether I'd be able to run across the road, let alone keep it up for 50 minutes. I started off very slowly and stiffly and EVERONE was passing me - hordes of people streaming past like I was standing still. Sheesh! But, as usually happens, I warmed up and was running okay - slower than normal, but smoothly and steadily. Running doesn't stress the behind-the-knee ligaments, and the rest of me had recovered.

Came in a few minutes early, for 7.1 km with an average pace of 6:29.

I was hobbling again as I walked back to the car. So running is okay - I just can't walk straight.

I had to scroll back through your posts to see why you where in so much pain. Wow what a week.

Such beautiful photos.

Great run, great photos, Louise! Walking not straight is OK!
