Parliament House training
Last night sixteen runners formed eight teams of 2 to run a 20 minute zigzag relay. Four teams started on one side, four the other as one team member ran diagonally across the grass south of Parliament House then up the flagpole line before handing over to the other team member and jogging back across to where they started. With runners going in all directions, to add to the confusion a couple of guys were trying to kick a footy around; on this occasion no-one was struck, unlike last time when there were frisbees and one unlucky speedygoose was a victim of discussion (see yesterday's neologisms). Participating last night were Craig, Yelena, Bronwyn, Katherine, Jennifer, Neil, Andrew, Warwick, Gary, Joel, Kat, Susan, me, Christopher, Rachelle, and the Disneyland Half Marathon proud medal bearer Jodie.
A series of attrition hill sprints was then held which Joel duly won.

Reintarnation: Coming back to life as a hillbilly.

Intaxication: Euphoria at receiving a tax refund, which lasts until you realise it was your money to start with.
Ignoranus: A person who's both stupid and an asshole.
Giraffiti: Vandalism spray-painted very, very high.
Tumfoolery: When a middle-aged man sucks in his stomach while being introduced to an attractive woman
Fadavers: Last year's hot fads.
Main Geeze: How an elderly, unmarried couple refer to each other.
Polarvoid: The state of having no baby pictures, a condition that usually befalls the second-born child.
Dozie: The lie a person tells when a telephone caller wakes him up and he denies that he was sleeping.
