Took a long time to get going but in the end turned into a reasonably standard recovery run, albeit in the morning rather than the evening (less to recover from than there usually is, too). No sign of the back/hamstring problems of yesterday.

The area around Fitzroy Pool is popular with bill posters, and in amongst the upcoming concerts (Dolly Parton, anyone?) was an ad for the appearance of Eddie Everywhere and sundry others I haven't heard of at something called a 21st Century Financial Summit. Seeing mention of such things reminds me of our old next-door neighbour in Albert Park, a 'colourful entrepeneur' who eventually disappeared to Hong Kong leaving $50 million in debts behind him, before resurfacing a few years later running financial advice seminars in which one of the items was 'how to separate your assets from your creditors'. Disappointingly, I was out of town the day the AFP paid him an early-morning visit (also disappointingly, I wasn't out of town the day I had to convince a couple of fairly hefty blokes at the front door that the person they wanted didn't live here).

Didn't really get going in this session; intermittent goggles trouble didn't help. A bit later than usual which also meant it was a bit less crowded (not that Fitzroy ever gets that crowded). Always nice to be out in the spring sunshine.
