Sunday 9.8k @ HR 145 Pace 4:55
9.8k 48:19. HR Avg 145 Max 157 Avg Pace 4:55
Course: Gap Cycle.
Start Time: 5:20 pm Temp 16C.
Session Type: Sub 75%MxHR Easy Run
Out on the Gap Bike Path tonight. Earlier this week a woman was attacked on this path. This was the fourth such attack on bike paths in North Brisbane in recent months. At one point I was running towards three young girls walking together towards me. I have found it is very common for people to make momentary eye contact or avoid eye contact altogether when running but those three girls all had their eyes glued to me and I sensed a certain edginess in the body language. "It's a heartbreaking world if you want it be".
The run tonight again was meant to be easy but it was still a little faster than I wanted to go. Earlier today, I was in town and dropped into Rebel Sport and picked up a pair of Skins tights. So I am wearing them as I type this in and they feel great. I wonder if I should ice my knee while I have them on?

Yay Skins!!! Though I don't know about icing while wearing them, I've contemplated it myself more than once.
Its really frightening that creep is still out there. I just hope none of our running friends, or anyone else for that matter, are taking risks and running in the area alone.

I am glad that you are mending so well Robert song.
It so sad that one sick viscious individaul can cause so much fear.

You can't ice and wear skins .... i think ... not so sure now .... ICE .... Ice Compression and Evelation ... guess you can. I was thing that one improved circulation the other did the opposite. Not helping, am I?
I must admit I am concerned about the creep as well. I was thinking about it on my long Saturday morning run when I saw a solo female runner going the other way. I considered that I should offer to run with her for that same reason. I'm also not comfortable with some of Katy's runs so I pick her up whenever I can.
