Bring back the Drought
Today:
Distance: 15.2 km
Time: 79 mins 59 secs
Rate: 5'15" per km
Weather: cloudy,calm,temp 18 degrees,humidity 90%, light rain at times
Woke up this morning to the sound of rain again on a public holiday when it should be nice and sunny to allow everyone to get out and about and enjoy the day off.
This is now 3 running days in a row that it has rained while I have been out and I am not impressed. I say, bring back the drought.
Usual run down to the river and back nothing remarkable about the run only it was very soft under foot and the grass is getting longer where the kangaroos have been slack in keeping it down.
I was on the river track between Pine Is and Point Hut and went past the biggest male kangaroo (eastern grey) I has ever been so close to (within a few metres). He didn't want to move far so just watched as I went by. When he stood tall, he would have been well over 2 metres tall, very impressive but very timid.
Today was the first run as part of the 9 weeks to Glasshouse Mtns in Qld in late May, looking forward to the training as long as it stay fine.

Try again! Thanks for breaking the drought :)
Your run sounds more exciting than our 40-odd laps of the PH carpark. Got soaked from perspiration rather than rain.
