Catching up now that I'm home again.
Last Thursday's Clarke & Dawe, from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tiyWMHyV1DY:



Last Thursday's Dickson training:
Present were Bill (new), Bronwyn, Fiona (new), me, Janene, Jen G, Jenny (new), Maria, Miranda, Nadine, Roger, Ruth, Susan & Thea. Maria and I ran early, as did Jen G but a little later; the group ran continuously 12 x 200m with each 200m preceded by a 100m float. The track is in a reasonable condition but the west side slopes are not; they have been attacked by bulldozers, polluted with fertiliser, and surrounded by fences. Plan A was to have been running intervals off-track along the slopes for the next few weeks. It appears we will have to stick to the track instead.

Last Friday's speedygeese at Customs:
Yili Zhu 21:20
Bob Harlow 22:18

Monday night's Parliament House training: I got back from Kiama in time to get there and run 20k. Ewen, Craig & Nadine also ran early. Other participants meeting us at 5:30pm were Andrew, Andy, Christopher, Emma P, Helen, Neil & Ruth who did a session of 6 x ~680m on five minutes, using one of the steeper slopes as part of the loop. No breeze, it wasn't cold, but it was dark.

Dinner reminder: This Thursday is the last chance to let me know that you are attending Tuesdays 10th's dinner.

I'm glad to be back; NOW I can focus on re-establishing those absolutely essential 100k weeks, and on looking to start improving again.
