Just found out that Team USA will have its own masseuse at the event - nice way to repay USATF membership. Attended team briefing, which was very helpful.

Note
Traversing areas of Perth I never knew on way to stadium and nursing facility. On the later, as far as dementia units go, this is a pretty nice one, fairly new but more importantly the staff are pretty attentive and the residents well cared for. Mum more lucid today, but still away with the fairies. Teamed up to win a game of bingo!
Beautiful warm blue sky Perth day, with some smog from brush burn off season- Sandgropers complaining about the weather being unseasonably cool. I'll take this over impending MN weather any day, bit like San Diego with year round outdoor track training.
Have set up a FB account and posting photos there (much easier than AP), so now fully social media compliant (except for no twitter acct).

Note
Visited my Mum and Dad today. Mum has just transferred into a secure dementia unit - sadly she didn't recognize me and can't talk at all coherently. Anyhow we went for a walk and a cuppa. Chatted to Nursing staff and then walked Dad home. Incredibly difficult for him, as he has all his marbles but struggles emotionally with the rapid decline in his partner of over 60 years. Just sad is all I can say about the situation and impact of AD.
