speedygeese @ Parliament House...

was wet for this morning's walk...

I parked at the Yacht Club then caught the bus from Albert Hall...

as I did last week, I ran back to my car with my backpack on before driving to Parliament House for speedygeese...the only addition was a poncho to keep my bag dry!

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 8.1/94% (apparent temp 6.2)
start time: 5:05pm
total distance: 3.30
total time: 19:02
avg pace: 5:46
total calories: 241
avg HR: 137
TE: 2.7
recovery HR: 97/43

speedygeese attendees (6): Isaac, Jen, Pieta, SG, Warrick and me...

warm up: 2.15k (warm up loop on the grass + jog to hill)

the plan was for 20 down & ups on 90secs (~200m)....in the end we did 16 as SG cut the session short as the rain was getting too heavy for his liking...Jen kept going while I did a reverse 3/4 loop to finish...

my hill effort times:
63, 64, 66, 64, 64, 66, 65, 64, 69, 67, 69, 67, 69, 69, 70, 69

warm down: 1.18k (3/4 loop on the grass)

total 6.62k in 47:39...starting temp/humidity: 7.8/99% (apparent temp 6.2)...avg HR: 141...TE: 3.3...recovery HR: 117/26...

another challenging session!

this morning I walked the boys later as I was having a day off to pick up the parental units returning from Italy...

for the first time the back gate was frozen shut - I had to find something to hammer it open to get the boys out!

a quick shower then it was off to Turner for Tammie to have physio on a troublesome back & hip...

from there we went to the airport for the first time to pick up mum & dad...turns out getting off their international flight was delayed by due to another aircraft in their allocated bay so they didn't make their flight which was due to land here at 11:50am...

they were then supposed to be leaving Sydney at 1305 but didn't end up leaving until just after 2:10pm, arriving at 3:00pm...

I skipped my run due to the uncertain nature of when they would actually arrive!
