Hall to Mulligan's Flat leg of the Centenary Trail with dad. Nice morning and good to do long and gentle run. My legs were a little tired but coped okay. Groin soreness crept in a little but stayed at a low level. Maintained a Suunto performance level of 55!

PTE 2.5

3km time trial on the grass track at Dickson, paced by Lachy Dow who generously dragged himself out of bed to help out. Wasn't sure what to expect as a) haven't done a 3km in about 5 years b) have never done one on a grass track, and c) have barely run in 7 weeks. So not the sub-10min I've been thinking I could do if I was fit but considering the track probably on par with the 10:20 I recorded on the UQ synthetic track a few years ago.

My max HR for this was pretty low. I would expect it to get up to nearly 190 in this sort of effort.

Upon downloading, I found my Suunto had decided that this was worthy of a 'performance level' of 54, which is the highest value I've recorded since Suunto introduced performance levels 3-4 months ago. Then I saw that it had rated my slow jog home afterwards a 55! Sort of blows my confidence in that metric.
