My last run was on Monday just gone and I was looking forward to getting heaps of k's in this week. That wasn't to be. On Tuesday, after work, at home I was simply too tired, more so than usual and decided a run was probably not the thing to do. That wasn't such a hard decision to make but then late Tuesday night my headaches returned which lasted all day Wednesday and late into Thursday.
Late Thursday my headaches had subsided and subsequently felt great again. About 4.55 pm I hit the streets of Hoppers Crossing intending to do 8 
k's
and as I was about a km into my run I changed my mind. I thought I'd visit the Werribee River since it's been quite a while. My intention was just to do an easy run and as per Monday nights run it didn't work out like that. I covered 12.39 km in 57:26 which paces out at 4:38 /km which I'm quite happy with. As it works out, it's my fastest time for this particular course. I've run it 13 times now.
I had my Garmin tonight and this time the heart rate monitor wasn't working. I think it may have been a flat battery in the heart rate strap.
Again, as per Monday nights run I felt quite strong and just kept up the pace. Strangely though I felt my quads working, it seemed like they were in overdrive. Those quads sore all night, a nice sore if you know what I mean. I don't normally feel muscle aches whilst I'm running, that usually kicks in later, after the run.
During the run I was tooted at twice and I've got no idea who they were. I let on anyway. One was a silver car in Heaths Rd and the other was a truck in Tarneit Rd. As the truck tooted I was passing an attractive blonde walking her dog, so maybe the toot was for her.

Steve out.
