yesterday I finally got back to playing golf...only 2 bad holes including some fun in a water hazard (yes, shoes & socks were off!)...

we lost a close one in baseball 5-6...and got to test how good my helmet is when catching!...a foul tip thudded into the right ear flap...I also copped another foul tip in my left arm and now have a nice lump together with the bruise!

had a nice dinner at Courgette for Jodie's birthday...yum!

You must be counting the runners as they pass you and you pass them? I have trouble remembering to put one foot after the other!

footnote - try running the short course and counting. We have long & short course runners, and walkers, in all directions and in massive clumps. It's George Street.

Happy Christmas, Jodie!

I don't do any counting on the run - sorting in Excel is the way to go...

Then in the short course I passed exactly 50 people and nobody passed me!
It works!
