I had time to change shirt and socks then put a load of washing on before Cookie picked me up for the Jogalong which was being run near the Boathouse restaurant while work is being done around the usual course at Weston Park...
this was my 6th Jogalong (my last one was in January 2008!) and having renewed my membership ($45) earlier in the year there was no cost for me...Cookie ran it as a non-member so had to fill in a single event entry, pay $10 and get a starting group...
we started in group 37 (5:15 pace), some 31:30 after group 1...it's an out & back course along the bike paths towards the airport...it was quite undulating with the detour past the damaged bike path a good test...conditions were good and it was fun to cheer on the other runners that I knew...
I channelled my inner boot camp persona and started to give Cookie some "encouragement" from about the 4.5k mark...and she responded (despite wanting to punch me!) with a sub 30 run!...we crossed the line in 39th and 40th spot...
the stats:
start temp/humidity: 14.9/63% (apparent temp 14.0)

Caroline Campbell picked up bronze to continue her week of excellent results!
I'm pleased that I was able to back up my early run and it looks like things are getting back on track for me...meanwhile Cookie is going from strength to strength and should run a good time in her goal race in 3 weeks!
now what shall I do the rest of the day?!
