Measuring When I Shouldn't Have To

Where: Tuggeranong
Purpose: fill in time
Distance: 3.3 km
Time: 5' 20" per km

Firstly, a trip to Stromlo Forest Park to measure & check on the grass running track for the next monthly handicap. Grass is nice, but GPS's measured all over the place and as we know, they don't like tight corners. The old fashioned measuring wheel is still the best for this.
Then, back at work a little early, so just time to fit in a short jog to Pine Is and back. Nice afternoon.

Last time I looked Stromlo hadn't changed. Hope you put a peg at the turn for next time.

Same spot for the turn using the same measuring wheel. It's just the GPS's that change.
