a cold December day

Last night at training: Andy, Brett, Caroline, Christopher, Craig, me, Joel, Nadine, Neil, Tony, Warrick & Yelena met at Parliament House for a session of 12 x 200 on 2:30 including a jog of ~ 260m. There was a bit of scaffolding at our usual start point for this session so we began and ended each loop at the 200m start line for a change. Yours truly managed to hang on and complete the whole session again. However, my other two companions in the early 8k run, Brett & Nadine, succumbed to a sore knee and a twisted ankle respectively. Here's hoping they return from holidays fully recovered.

After a very cold day, it wasn't too bad when the sun emerged in late afternoon as we trained.

Candid Canberra #34 - occasional visitors.

The cicadas have returned! On the weekend you could hear them in the trees around Lake Burley Griffin. And quite a few carcasses were down on the path.
