Lame walk-jog to fix lame injury 31:00 [1] 4.5 km (6:53 / km)
2 min jog/1 min walk, from home, same up-and-down route as Sunday. Good news is the tightness is gone, bad news is that I noticed the hotspot a little bit - nothing major, but then there were days before I stopped where I noticed nothing major either. Suggests a slow rehab process is no bad thing.
Cycling 1:15:00 [3] 29.0 km (2:35 / km)
Out and back along the Koonung Creek path - not a commute for once as I had the ASC summit at the MCG rather than work (at least in the morning). The path is fun, the roads getting there and back were not fun - I'm normally doing them on a weekend when they're fine, but at 7.30 or 8.30 on a weekday they're the major truck route between the Hume and the Eastern. Working fairly hard on the outward trip, and cruising enjoyably on the long downhills coming back.
The ASC summit on the Crawford review was interesting, although I was hoping for more concrete indications from the ASC as to what they thought was likely to happen (to be fair, they've probably got about as much idea as the rest of us). The day was more about identifying from sports what the controversial issues were (no real surprises here) and where the gaps in the report were. It's also apparent that everyone wants more money, but I'm not convinced that more money is going to be forthcoming. Surprisingly little vigorous argument, but that may be because the real heavyweights were missing - John Coates wasn't there, and the likes of the AFL, NRL, rugby union, cricket and soccer either weren't there or were represented by low-level people.
The award for being in the right place at the right time goes to the Victorian Environment Minister, Gavin Jennings. You may have noticed press reports that he was missing from Copenhagen because his doctor had said he couldn't fly. I found out the reason why today - he had a heart attack in his office on Friday. Fortuitously, at the time there was a meeting going on in the next office between the Health Minister and the AMA, whose members were able to do the necessary.
Also noticed that for once the courts threw the book at someone who ran down a cyclist (13 years, the heaviest sentence I can remember for culpable driving), although the combination of speeding while drunk and on drugs and in the process of going to buy more drugs was never going to attract much judicial sympathy.
