I've finally finished updating, and getting onto the OA website, my file of all Australian (long) Championship results from 1971-2017, sorted by name (but if you download it you can sort it other ways), all the way from Hans Aamodt (25th, M65A, 2002) to James Zuijdveld (7th, M21C, 1983). You can find it here.

Another nice morning - would be difficult to have a bad run on a morning like this, sunny and crisp - and a decent session, noticeably faster than my last few interval sets here. Felt like I was going a little lactic on the last couple, which is an indication that I was trying respectably hard. No sign of Achilles soreness today.

Only drawback of the conditions is that it drew all the dogs (and their owners) out, but at least none got in the way.

Going to/from All Nations. One of life's little mysteries - the traffic on Station Street is typically banked back further at 7.20ish than it is at 8ish, and definitely was today. (From the perspective of this run, being banked back is a good thing because it's easier to cross stopped traffic than moving traffic).

It seems the local real estate agents are promoting (via signs) one of the independent candidates for the by-election - I'm assuming this is payback for the Labor candidate making renters' rights a big centrepiece of her campaign.
