Mint meander...

No running yesterday but an excellent gathering of geese (35) at Ellacure last night...

So I ran today instead and decided that I would go visit Tim at The Mint!

I went around the lake past Commonwealth Park, over Kings Ave bridge, past the flags, alongside Lennox Gardens (road side), up and past Parliament House, down Melbourne Ave, onto Gawler Cres, cut through past the playground to Stonehaven Cres and then right onto Strickland...I tried to stick to the shade as much as possible but it was still pretty warm...

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 30.7/22% ("apparent temp": 29.0)
finish temp/humidity: 31.6/23% ("apparent temp": 30.0)
start time: 12:16pm
total distance: 11.20
total time: 63:33
avg pace: 5:41
total calories: 633
avg HR*: 156

*Time spent in HR Zones:
00:10 [Z1: 93-111]
00:13 [Z2: 111-130]
08:08 [Z3: 130-148]
54:52 [Z4: 148-167]
01:11 [Z5: 167-185]

spent about 15mins with Tim - got a drink and an apple - before just making it to the bus stop in time to get back into Civic (didn't you think I would run back??)

no baseball training tonight so I plan to watch the cricket...

Speedygeoff gave a glowing report of the dinner while talking on Wednesday before the BBQ Stakes.

Sounds like the group had a good chance to chat in more depth than when on a run.
