Campbell Rise

Today:
Distance: 14.15 km
Time:  79'  12"
Rate: 5' 36" per km
Weather: cool, cloudy, temp 10 degrees, humidity 50%, wind NW 15 kmph but gusts to 30 kmph
Week:  57.45 km,  Sept: 349.95 km
Year: 3467.05 km in 39 weeks at ave 88.9 km

I ventured over to Campbell Park which will be the location for the October monthly handicap subject to a final approval from ACT Environment.
With plenty of rain overnight, I was interested to see how much the tracks had softened & if there was water over the surface at the couple of ponds after the horse stile.
The good news is both times the tracks had water over them, but not much. If there is no more rain & the sun shines, it may dry out and we won't get wet feet.
Otherwise, the rest is Ok.  I ran a couple of versions just in case we need a last minute change.
Otherwise, no other runners or walkers around. They must have been indoors drinking coffee.

  • Bummer that I don't get back from a trip to the US until the day of the handicap. Not back in time to participate. Nice to know that there is a decent course at Campbell Park. With all the new housing out in Forde, I think there would be parking and a good course at Mulligans Flat nowdays. Maybe something for the future? :-)

  • Ruth said she made a point of not checking in on FB until we'd finished coffee - she didn't want you, CJ and Liz joining us and hogging the conversation ;)
