Belair Arrows Group Run! With B&S, Zara/Callum, Will & AK, Tyson - while Fern took Paddy for a piggyback. Mr T wanted to do the Station Rd loop so we went up through Echo Tunnel past the waterfalls, getting a physics lesson from Simon at the top, out of the park along the railway line to the oak tree, up to Upper Sturt and then down into the park by the tennis courts, back along Long Gully. Really nice morning for it (if a little warm in the sun) and fairly social pace with stops and loopings-back where necessary. I really wanted to make my legs run faster on the downhills but they just wouldn't; don't seem to flex properly from the hips. Also legs were very tired and nearly went on strike with the hill coming up out of Zara's at the end.
Made it home in time to get clean & decent for lunch with friends at Mitcham, during which G got a call from neighbours to say that our dog was in their yard (escaped again even though we'd put the kennel in front of the gate!!!) so he headed home, locked Meatloaf inside, returned to lunch. When we came home afterwards the curtains were down in both the study and the lounge room, with the curtain rail hooks pulled right out of the wall, and a pile of shredded towels lay in the bathroom. Can't leave the bloody dog alone at Ave Rd for even a few minutes, he just gets so anxious and manically destructive :(
