Nice running weather but...

Spring, specifically October, is my allergy time. Not only
magpies
dogs
p-platers, but also
cottonwood fluff.
One run through the fluff = 3 days of headaches. The only airborn material I am really allergic to.
Cottonwood fluff is just starting to appear, it has arrived late this year.
Here's how it looked at the ANU a few years ago



Fortunately Parliament House, where I mainly train, and Stromlo, is relatively free of it.
But it is all over Canberra, particularly around the lakes and rivers.
Here's to a headache-free spring.
