easy...Day 94 of 133 plus Commonwealth Park

I am a goose, not just a speedygoose, but a silly goose...

let me set the scene – I have several running routes from work to cater for the different length runs I do midweek from 30mins up to 90mins...day’s program called for a 45min run so off I set in the rain...it was quite pleasant but there weren't very many other runners about (maybe two that I saw)...

anyway for some reason I took my 60min route (which includes Lennox Gardens) and didn’t realise until my timer went off and I was still some distance from work in Commonwealth Park...luckily the rain had stopped by then for my *20min* walk back...oops!
