Long Weekend


Tomorrow’s Anzac Day – long weekend. We’ve finished most house chores we normally do on weekends, so tomorrow’s pretty free for recreation, I guess. Also, will feel free for a longer run. Since moving to Melbourne, I’ve not run as much as before. The 8-10k’s daily runs have not dwindled down to maybe 8k every other day. Sometimes it gets a bit wet in the morning, so I sometimes go for up to 3 days between runs. Thankfully my weight hasnt changed all that much, in fact have lost a little bit. This morning however, was able to go over to a football (that’s Aussie Rules Footy, actually) field for a run. They call it the oval over here, a bit like the stadium track I sometimes run on back in Klang. I mentioned to wifey how few people were there and she said that’s probably there’re ovals all over whereas back in Klang, there were probably only 2-3 spots to exercise, so each spot is usually filled with people. Anyway, the run was good and as always, the cooler and cleaner air makes for much better running. Maybe tomorrow I can go for a longer one, maybe a 15k. Need to have less wine tonight though, if I want to do that.
