Go there: at the very least you may find some (nine) other good Aussie running blogs.

Meanwhile let's talk about last night. Kaleen oval passed the test, a good surface with plenty of room to train around the outside of the sports fields. Lots of kiddies practicing their ball sport of choice. And our presence might even spook one or two very odd looking gentlemen lurking among the trees, or am I just paranoid?

Ruth and Margaret ran over from Ruth's place 800m away; Rod wasn't there this time but he lives a short distance away too and will join us; Colin trained well, Clint and Janene not far behind; Susan showed good form, Yelena too, and I trotted around at the back.

On this occasion we ran 3 or 4 intervals of 1200m, one complete circuit. We will continue to meet at Kaleen at 5:30pm on Thursdays. Some couldn't find Turon Place on a map; it is opposite Snowy Place. Park down the end of Turon Place.

Now to Friday

It IS a beautiful day. Sunny and warm, a perfect May day in Canberra, "Customs" calls, I will be there.
