A pre-dawn 10km run with Munchkin the Border Collie. We got spooked by some huge thunderstorms just off the Coast and called the session off before things got too dangerous. We trained indoors for a while, hoping to get out there again. It wasn't to be with more storms and hail continuing until late morning. Satisfied with 15km in the legs all up. Hopeful for another run later in the day.
