Flexibility

10 October 2006

I arrived home on Monday evening and confronted Blue Dog with my dilemma. I had a very important meeting scheduled early on Tuesday morning regarding a restructure that impacted on my position, and possibly my ability to continue SWEAT and my regular morning runs. So I decided not to attend SWEAT to avoid arriving late to my meeting. Anyway the outcome was good so I'm happy. I arranged to meet Katie and Ray after work for a speed session, which then become an 11k run. There was not speed left in our legs at that time of the day. Katie and Ray gave me a tour of their local area, and we laughed when I realised I was near the Como Pub and had been there before. Blue Dog has definitely shown me the sights of Sydney. I now understand why Katie powers up the hills with such ease, their local area is definitely not flat.

This morning there was only a small group of us for our mid week long run, Katie, Kerry and myself. We ran the usual outside loop of the Park and then went to the Park taking any direction and path to ensure we achieved our daily target. It was perfect running conditions and the company was great. It's always amazing what we chat about and the answers with come up with for life's daily issues on these runs. I know it keeps me sane. We stopped at the lake to admire the little baby ducks, they were so small a couple had difficulty walking. I started to feel tired towards the end of the run this morning and was pleased to finished. We ran a total 16k at 5:42/km.
