Run 41:00 [3] 7.0 km (5:51 / km)

My version of Attack of the Killer Physio seems to have worked, at least for today - it was a rather sleepy and unenergetic run (probably thanks to a late night at the tennis last night) but all relevant body parts were functioning more or less as they supposed to, and ventured onto some rougher tracks on Darebin Parklands without any problems other than being very slow (a marked contrast to Sunday where a half-contour bump was enough to set the Achilles off). Hopefully something to build from.

There was some mirth around today at news that the government was announcing funding for a replica vessel to circumnavigate Australia for the 250th anniversary of Captain Cook's voyage (those with a knowledge of Australian history will recognise the problem here). Other parts of the voyage which I presume will not be accurately re-enacted include sailing straight past the entrance of Sydney Harbour, running aground on the Great Barrier Reef and firing muskets at uppity members of the local indigenous population.

There was also some discussion today as to what we should call this summer now that it looks highly likely that it will comprehensively beat most of the heat records set in the so-called "Angry Summer" of 2012-13. My entry so far is that the Angry Summer is about to be downgraded to 'slightly miffed'.
