The only politics you need to watch to know what is going on in the world is your weekly dose of Clarke and Dawe!

Did they know about this morning's explosions and fire?
Chemical Factory fire in Mitchell overnight, many big explosions, still burning now. We're far enough away in Holt and the wind is not blowing in this direction, so no problem here. However I am not so sure of the wisdom of running along the lake near the city at lunhtime today.
Stretch #5 Adductor stretch
This stretch I have enormous difficulty with. So I suppose that means I should practise it as often as possible. There is an easier version, lying on your back, bum up againsts the wall, legs up the wall, letting gravity assist the stretch. I might try that verson for a while.
Too nice a day to stay inside for long. So it's off to Customs after all to try and avoid another 5k PW.
Speedygeese training last night at the Yarralumla Dog Park was a great success, but accidentally so. Nadine, Tori & I discovered a grass track ("Yarralumla 2") I didn't know existed while we were running two large 5k laps outside the golf course as part of our early run. So I took the main group of Abi, Bronwyn, Cathy, Colin, Ewen, Joel, Kym, Ruth & Yelena up to the oval for half an hour of one lap intervals with a lap jog's recovery, run as a relay in teams of three. The surface was beautiful soft grass, and there was absolutely no-one else down on the oval we were training on. A welcome change from Dickson.
If we hadn't found the oval it would have been too dark to complete much training. There was enough light near the oval to enable us to see. Just.
