My running streak day 141

Today was Monday and a public holiday (why?) to boot. I jogged 1k early in the day (in case we were washed out later), then did a 7k early run at Parliament House in the afternoon, then was shocked/ surprised/ delighted to greet 21 other runners at Parliament House for Monday training, surely a record by far for a public holiday. We went down to "Court 8" and ran 3 and 2 person relays around the 400m loop which includes the very steep grassy hill. Attending along with me were Gwen, Vanessa H, Michael, Deborah, Giles, Lisa, Kevin, Chloe, Jacob, Celina, Ruth, Jennie, Colin, Jen, George, Annette (still visiting), another Paul (new), Tiffany (new), Rae, and Erica (age 5) who also ran several loops with us, and not slow either! Dave was sighted as well although he did his own thing. A 5k there made it 13k for the day for me.

Some of tonight's crowd. (Thanks Annette/Ruth for the photos)
