Another satisfying week - over 70km
Tue,Wed,Thurs total 35km of steady runs 4:45 average. Still groin pain if I try to push the pace
Saturday morning 26k run over last part of the SixInch Trail course - near Dwelligup. Plans of running the earlier section from North Dandalup were canned when we arrived to find the track closed by CALM due to controlled burning.
Nonetheless it was a very enjoyable run. First 20k we took very easy. Last 6k I was running with Colin - an ultra runner of some repute, and pushed it back to 5min/k average, pleasing on trail with hydration pack.
This morning a 10k with Potsy - averaged 445s which was faster than I wanted but you cant hold the man back!
The challenge will be increasing the mileage again this week, esp with 37 degrees tomorrow - need to drag myself out of bed early!

Nice running paces !! Looks like the Nepal trip refreshed you a lot while the effect of increased training volume begins to kick-in. I think you are now much faster than me ;-)
Agree with Sling Runner.
Keep the injury at bay, and like Chris Judd your sports future looks bright!
That sub 5 minute stuff and the epic Six Inch Recon #1 looks promising.
The heat is rather sapping its almost like Singapore weather came to visit us for a few days at the beginning of this week.
Was a good group we had out there at Dwellingup. I got a lot from it, especially in the first 15K!
Sounds like you are going well and Nepal has been an excellent reinvigoration for you.
