Dinner, finally...

yesterday's gym session was the first one of the new Day 2...some interesting exercises which mostly hammered my back, legs and biceps...

the bike ride in the morning (nice conditions) was in complete contrast to the ride home which was into a headwind with spiky rain

today I ran to Cookie's place again then we did two short loops around Yerrabi Pond with another footy teammate, Woodsy (who will be crewing for the Trailwalker team and is also training as a reserve to cover any injuries) and her two beagles (Henry and Ruby)...I then continued back home...

all up 14.84k for me, 7.93k for Cook...broken down as follows:

then it was off to golf...the temperature was quite chilly throughout...I played 6 shots worse than my handicap and am now back out to 16...still had some good holes though...

had the rest of the family over for dinner...mum managed to make it in one piece so there was no trip to Calvary...after we watched an ESPN show I had recorded on Fox IQ about the 26th MDS...managed to spot Tim a few times!

the last two nights I've had the combined total of 7hrs sleep as I've been doing some online scoring for the US Open (golf)...hopefully I'll get a good sleep tonight in readiness for tomorrow's big match against Riverina at Amaroo...
