Over to Mitcham, along the creek behind the caravan park, up behind Carrick Hill & Waite, from which there's unfortunately no more efficient route home than 40 min due west through the suburbs. Fitted this in before work and my hands in particular were rather cold (all of me took a while to warm up afterwards) - guess it's rogaine acclimatisation. Saw a few people out training for Yurrebilla which, as always at this time of year, makes me wonder if I could actually train up & do it next year. The more imminent decision to make is whether to run 12km next Sunday or drop down to 35s, but this run didn't help me to decide!

C • 35s 1

Slushy redwoods run with Zara/Callum, Nick, Greg. Good company but I was rather exhausted...

Trotted over to Mortlock Park and did a couple of laps alternating faster and slower sides so that this wasn't just a recovery run. Squeezed this in before going to give a case presentation at a cancer pharmacists' dinner and got home from (free) 3-course dinner just in time to watch Utopia :)

C • Sandwich for dinner? 8

6 x Montefiore Hill, plus warmup/down to/from Morphett St. There was another group running the hill also tonight which made it difficult for the rest of us to see where Simon was when, as the back-marker, he started off from the bottom.

Did half a dozen crossings of Mortlock Park at faster pace, then the rest of my CLG loop. Guess I'd better make the most of my run-from-Repat-routes because there's only a couple more months in which to utilise them. We should finally know the outcomes of the EOI process next month, then be moving offsite the month after...

Decided to give my knees a rest today and also was disinclined to spend 5hrs driving to/from Rock Oyster, so started on housework when I woke up - and finally gave up on it 11hrs later (didn't even leave the house to walk the dog) when friends arrived for dinner! I guess that's my spring cleaning done, since of the next 9 weekends I'll be away for 7 and working/on call the other two :(
