main range loop with jo, hoggster adn shep. Storms all around but above us. Unfortunately I fell at one point along range hurting my hand. Currently fairly swollen, painful and wondering whether x-rays are necessary. definite bummer but hopefully will only a problem for a few days. Legs felt tired but good. We met walking crew of searlo, stace, walders and belinda near Kosi so i walked back with them. Without fall i would have liked to run back final 30mins with jo & shep who got 3hr and 3hr 30 runs respectively!

C • Hand sore 1

Caught chairlift up crackenback then ran down to Dead Horse gap and along thredbo river back to village. great run in the alpine air with stace, hoggster, jo and post his intervals shep.

played golf with hoggster, walders and shep at thredbo's cracker 9 hole course. obv. I won or I wouldnt be entering it on AP. Hit 59 with highlight being tee shot on 8th to crush opposition by landing it to less than 10m from hole. Other highlights mainly from Walders who was leading until his 11 off the tee at the treachorous 7th.

C • Not a bad score (if it were 18 holes :-) 8

wanted to run but couldn't get away from nieces. see them so infrequently it seemed wrong to go running. drove to thredbo.

travelled down the coast to stay a night with my sister and family.

Solo longish run round back of Mt AInslie then over and back to car at Majura car park. Bit warm but ntb. Listened to cricket whole time - Aggers, Roebuck, KOK, cracker stuff.

C • How are you enjoying your last days as an M21? 2

Searlo watch: spotted doing 40min run with Stace.

Also played tennis with Turbo, Walders and EmilyV at Scotty's courts. good fun although not enough to count as training. Walders serve is fast but inaccurate. Bit like mine.

Crackenback and Aranda Hill surge with Jo in beautiful cool conditions. Much better doing the surges with someone my pace to push along. hard work with Jo saying she thought she was going to "expire".
Run to start: 26.51 (133/151)
Crackenback: 10.15 (166/174)
Run to Aranda Hill:9.35 (141/173)
Aranda Hill: 4.09(165/174)
Run home: 12.47(134/174)

Xmas run with Jo round Red Hill. Ran along edge of yesterdays little Red Hill fire. PLenty of "Merry Christmas"s from various walkers we saw.

Beautifully crafted sloping pitch favouring the away swinger. Bob, Shep & I spent most of match trying to snick it to the keeper which was desirable seeing the only fielder was the keeper. Game ended with six and out when Shep tonked it over fence. he was able to retrieve ball with rake which was impressive.
