Running
None today, after last nights session I got too good a night sleep and went right through my alarm (rare for me) and it’s way to hot to run tonight.
Be up before the birdies tomorrow instead, this weather is wreaking havoc on my mileage. Then again the silver lining could be that it is holding me back from doing too much too soon 
Pulled up fine after yesterday, no where near as much leg soreness as I expected and absolutley no issues with my right foot at all. As a precaution I gave the calves and achilles a good going over with The Stick last night and also iced my foot at achilles, all of which seems to have paid off.
Here is a picture of my new Trance 6s, alongside a picture of the Trance 5s (certainly not relegated, I still have 2 new pairs that I am rotating with the 6s). The 6s are the flash looking blue pair, not that looks are everything, but these are pretty cool.
Stupid People
Serbs and Croats brawling at the Tennis yesterday, idiots, ’nuff said really. You would think of all places you could safely take your family it would be the tennis.
This was the scenario at Flinders Street this afternoon, stinking hot, signal failures and power issues all leading to late and cancelled trains. Did I lose my cool? Not for a second, my tactic for dealing with this weather is to take it easy, move slowly and in a word, just chill the hell out. So today when a train does turn up, the doors open and what does most of the platform do? You guessed it, they all try to shoehorn themselves through the door at once, leaving the poor passengers on the train trying to figure out how the hell they are going to get OFF THE TRAIN. I am just standing back watching this insanity shaking my head. And by the time I got on the train last, guess what? Not only did I get a seat, I got a spare seat next to me. Stupid People.
Heading North
I managed to get a cheap fare up to the Gold Coast for a nice 4 day break at the end of February. It can’t come soon enough, I can’t wait to see my sister again and give her a big hug, I miss her so much. She got engaged before Christmas, so now I have an excuse to drink that bottle of Moet I have been saving!
Now I just have to sort out somewhere to do my long run on the Sunday.
