Fun morning at the zoo where we bumped into Briohny and family! Home for a nap (not for me sadly) then out to Jasmine's place where I left Flo and headed to Lyneham for hockey, stopping at Campbell High to do a jog on Ainslie.

C • Was lovely 2

Pretty hot and humid. I thought my sore muscles had mostly healed but again, the left hammy/glute/mystery muscle went during the game. It will be super strong when I get through this!

Busy day with Florence but no opportunity (child-minders) to run.

I got stuck in a meeting so missed the group run, but did my own a bit later. I ran a variation to the CP loop, including 4 hills up parliament house (~45secs) and the drag from OPH to NPH (1.5mins). It started to rain pretty heavily mid-way and I got soaked. Fantastic that I then had to walk through and into the depths of the RG Casey building to get to the change rooms. Why did they put them there?

On Farrer Ridge after some heavy rain. Francis and Trevor are staying with us so I handed over Florence and nipped out.

Yeah that's right, 59.9 kgs. It's been a long road but after two or so years I'm under 60 kgs again. Still 10% more than what I used to be but I'll take it.
And it's bullshit that breastfeeding helps you lose weight - most likely undiagnosed thyroid dysfunction which affects a lot of women post birth. I was unlucky enough to have an overactive thyroid and see no change to my weight at all!

Red Hill. I wanted to run all of the old favourites so was out a bit of a while, my bad.

Just a little one from work - Parliament House, John Gorton and back.

Drove up to the base of Mt Taylor and did a lap. I was naughty and ran a bit faster than "easy" because I had music for the first time in over two years and got to listen to The Naked and Famous :D
