The Year Ahead

Today:
Distance: 12.55 km
Time: 69'  15"
Rate:  5' 31" per km
Weather: sunny, temp 18 degrees, humidity 45%, wind light NW 15 kmph
Week:  32.75 km,  Sept:  169.35 km, Year:  3290.85 km

One of our work bush walkers encountered 3 brown snakes on the track between Pine Is and Point Hut today in a one kilometre distance. They may have all been from the same family just out for a bit of warm sunshine. But brown snakes are deadly if you get bitten & not treated immediately.
On that track, it may be the next day before any one else comes along to help. Care needs to be taken now the warmer weather is here & the snakes are out.
I didn't get near that track or near the river today, just a run home for lunch and back to work. A short 15 minutes in the gym back at work, and that was all.
Some dates for events are now in place, so the running plan can now be a little more confirmed for the first part of next year.
Starting with the last part of this year, Orroral Valley Classic on 21st Oct, I have the next bush walk set for 11th Nov, Deep Space mountain marathon set for 11th Nov. Another bush walk before Christmas with a "may be" on Tour de Ridges on the weekend before Christmas.
Then in 2013, Brindabella 100 km / mile on 2nd Feb with Coburg 24 hour in early April.
That should set up the rest of the year nicely if it all goes to plan. Hopefully, there will be no sickness. Strategic rest plus proper recovery & ongoing injury prevention will get me to the target event.
Going to be a great next 12 months or so.
