6.5k 33:11. HR Avg 139 Max 149 Avg Pace 5:06
Course: Gap Cycle Path.
Start Time: 6:55 am Temp 147C.
Session Type: Easy Run
After my last run on Wednesday, I pulled up with a sore left hamstring the next day. I don't know where that came from. So I took a safety first approach and haven't run again till this morning, when I went out for a short easy run. The hammie felt OK, so hopefully that is the end of it.
I possibly could have gone out last night, but I was just too tired by the end of the day. I woke up at 2:20 am on Friday morning and couldn't get back to sleep as the excitement was building for the Socceroos match. So I got up and watched Ghana v USA. It was then the glorious Australia match. So by then end of the day, I was spent. Luckily this is all hapening in the taper. This would have to be the laziest and craziest taper I have ever done. It will be interesting to see how fresh I feel on race day. At the moment I am a bit of a walking zombie. Must get more sleep!!
As for the Socceroos, bring on Italy. If we can pull off a miracle there, I fancy our chance in a Quarter Final against Switzerland or Ukraine. Neither have played very well in the group stages. Then a much tougher S/F assignment against Argentina or Germany, before the Final against Ghana who have knocked Brazil out in the Round of 16. Let's dare to dream.

Your marathon result is more of a certainty than us beating Italy...... and we have have a pretty good shot at that one.
