Training Log Archive: Craney

This run, on Campbell Park and Hacket Hill, achieved it's aim: make my stonking hangover feel less bad. It didn't achieve much else.

Ran up to Baroomba rocks in Namadgi - it was pretty cold (about 5degs) and windy, but some sunshine. Great views over Canberra from up there, and some sprinklings of snow on some of the branches - that was cool. I spied a gnarly looking slab of granite along the ridge from the end of the walking path, so bush-bashed through to that. Found a few cairns so it wasn't too bad. The open rocks were good for running on and there was a nice cairn on the top with some nice views and a rainbow. The run was one long mince really, but the fresh air and serenity were all good for my cold. Going to overwrite the goodness it did me with pub again this evening.

Still not quite well enough to run propoerly. Fortunately well enough to go to the pub with Gareth, Ben, Jose and Phoebe.

Went for a little jog with Gracie around Griffith. Still feeling a bit rough, but good to blow out a few cobwebs. It was wet and grey and drizzly for the first time in ages - some Sheffield nostalgia hit me a few times temporarily, but since I could easily remember the last time it was sunny (yesterday), it wasn't quite the same.

Well enough to go back into work so I could have the big birthday cake they'd got me :o)

Off work sick today - just a standard cold though

Throat feels like I've eaten another badger today
