Training: on Saturday Miranda and I had a long run from Acton Ferry Terminal, and we joined Ruth who was on an even longer run.
Sunday at Stromlo Forest Park Lucia, Dave, Joel and I were there and the session consisted of 12 x 200m.
Monday at Parliament House another large turn-out with two first timers, two second timers (yes they do come back!), and two returning runners. Bron, Cathy, Ewen, Ruth and I ran the early 4k, then for the main session we were joined by Alex, Alison (new), Azrianne, Colin, Dan, Helen, Jen, Jessica, Mick, Thommo (new, we have another "Peter"), Rae, Thomas, Vanessa and Warrick. We ran intervals up the Commonwealth Place ramp from the ampitheatre where a personal trainer was coercing her clients to attempt burpees and the like, to the top of the Reconciliation Place mound; "Ramp 150s" for short from now on; 12 on 2 minutes.
Next week is Australia Day and we will be meeting at the Yarralumla Dog Park: 4:30pm for an early run; 5:30pm for interval training on grass.
I did announce a date for our next speedygeese dinner, but it has been changed to Monday 9 February.
