FkF #252

last night’s ride wasn’t too cold and it only started raining when I hit Woden…was pretty damp by the time I got home…

caught up on some Season 2 episodes of Grimm while waiting for the cricket to start after the rain…good on Smith for getting a ton – he gives hope to all those unorthodox batters out there!

was a bit humid on this morning’s ride and very windy…a sign of things to come for FkF…

today’s run was on the Floriade course which we will be using until all the fences come down at the end of Floriade…a good turnout, probably close to 30 runners…

last time I ran this course was back in October 2010 when I did a time of 25:44…today was my 56th run on this course and I managed a reasonable 23:19 (9th fastest)…my average time is 24:07…it was that windy that running downhill into the wind was no quicker than running uphill…

hopefully that time in those conditions means I can beat my Floriade course PB of 23:03 set in September 2006…

overall I have done 252 FkF with an average time of 23:42…my PB is 21:24 set on 31 May 2013…today's run ranks =95th...

I’m not looking forward to the ride home – it’s going to be wet and windy…can’t believe the temperature is meant to hit the high teens over the weekend…

tomorrow I’m playing golf (10:59am) followed by the indoor cricket Grand Final at Weston (5:30pm)

Sunday I’m planning to do the Vets handicap at Mt Taylor (7k)…then later in the day do some more packing so Jodie and I can move the majority of my furniture into the garage…
