up early to walk Hodge and then call into the PO to pick up a parcel before catching the bus to work...

at lunchtime I headed out to Ray's Outdoor at Majura Park to pick up my race # (617) for Sunday's 10k...

with Jodie still interstate for work, I caught the bus to the next Twilight O event at Campbell Park...starting early was good as there were less people (i.e. distractions!) on the course...the scale was back to the usual 1:10000...

aside from going too far to the right on #2 I was pretty happy with the rest of my nav given the terrain...
