Long Hill Reps 5 x 1.3ks

Due to really bad traffic starting from the Eastern Distributor, and through the Tunnel and Mosman it was too late to get to Allambie to do some longer hill reps.
Instead did reps of Parriwi Rd.

Reps were 6:54, 7:00, 7:06, 6:57, 7:01. All done with about the same recovery back down the hill.

Humid and very windy. At least I was being blown up the hill.

Downhill Reps 12 x 420m

24 degrees, 60% humidity, 35k winds with gusts up to 50k's. Lucky I was running downhill away from the northerly.

Did the grass hill in Centennial Park.

Reps were 1:23, 1:21, 1:19, 1:19, 1:21, 1:18, 1:20, 1:20, 1:20, 1:18, 1:21, 1:19.
All done with probably triple recovery back up the hill into the wind.

Longer Hill Rep 2 x 3.6k

Allambie rd again. 22 degrees and 62% humidity wasn't too bad. A bit of breeze helped as well.

Reps were 18:40, 19:04. Bit of a blow out on the 2nd one.

Long recovery back down the hill.

Downhill Reps 12 x 420m

23 degrees and 73% humidity.
Down the grass slope from the Paddington gates to the café in Centennial Park.
Plenty of people about but none on the grass which was good.

Reps were 1:18, 1:17, 1:18, 1:16, 1:17, 1:18, 1:20, 1:16, 1:16, 1:18, 1:19, 1:17.

All done with about double the recovery back up the hill.

Long Hill Rep 1 x 3.6k

Didn't have a lot of time tonight to do another one.
Found a nice hill that Tom Highnam had mentioned. The Striders Dee Why Dash STaR actually runs down the hill.

Basically Kentwell Rd and running into Allambie Rd at Allambie Heights. A bit of downhill in it but only about 20 metres. Some flat as well but all up bottom to top it is 3.6ks.

Took me 19:10. Did a recovery back down which is a bloody long time for a recovery.
