Monday Mar 31, 2014 #
7 AM
Run 43:00 [3] 8.0 km (5:23 / km)
The usual Monday morning creakiness in the body, but at least the engine seemed to be functioning today, particularly once warmed up. On the way up.
8 AM
Swimming 36:00 [2] 1.0 km (36:00 / km)
Swim following the run. Felt reasonable during the run, but got an indication that there are still a few things not quite balanced as they should be in my body with intermittent foot cramps in the later stages of the swim (which isn't completely unusual), and a more significant cramp in the quad when I was getting out of the pool (which is).
WA are off to the polls this weekend to have another go at electing their share of the Senate. The most likely potential beneficiary of micro-party preference deals this time round appears to be the Help End Marijuana Prohibition (HEMP) Party, although the WA credentials of its lead candidate appear to be somewhat dubious - he lives in Lismore (at least it isn't Nimbin) and named the WA Premier incorrectly when asked by a journalist. (In practice, I'm expecting that the Liberals, Labor and Greens will get close to or above three, two and one quotas respectively on primary votes, taking the micros out of the picture).
(I last encountered HEMP amongst the colourful cast of characters at the 2001 Aston by-election - their person disappeared periodically behind the bushes, presumably to smoke a joint. Other highlights that day included the Wilderness Society koala turning up to scrutineer for the Greens, and the Citizens Electoral Council crowd spruiking a high-speed train around the entire circumference of Australia).
