Depending on your experience, traffic, and the ambient temperature you may make it all day without a problem. October is early spring yet so it's probably still fairly cool, right?

I didn't have a problem until the ambient temperature got over 80/90F (~25/35C) and I had run a few sessions already.

Australia's weather is a but sucky... Oct can be very hot if you're unlucky... and it can be 15*C. all luck really...
