beige

A very quick post today, as I’m not only wasting time during work hours, but wasting time during a terribly informative seminar…..

I talked, flippantly, on Friday of a “slight stiffness” in the hip. Truth be told, it was a fair bit more than “slight stiffness”. Actually there was a fair bit of standing on the side Maroondah Highway, rubbing the leg and cursing bitterly.

So, Saturday, there was no running whatsoever. Just some house-work and general handimanishness. The bathroom is now painted a lovely shade of Manhattan beige. Not exactly the colour I would have chosen, but that’s not up to me.

Sunday dawned bright, well, er, it dawned, and anyway I was feeling okay. So I head out for a ginger, delicate, slow long run along the Mullum Mullum creek. It turned out okay - 3 laps, plus some faffing about at then. It turned out to be 34k. 34 slow km, but 34k nonetheless.

Generally, pretty heatwarming. It’s good to know I can run over 30k almost effortlessly and good to know the hip thing doesn’t hold me back too much.

Football
The big game on Saturday night was a bit of a disappointment. It was 1-1. It could be worse I suppose. We could have lost. But the general feeling around the place is a bit gloomy. Oh well.

Jaykay, you’re now one of the good guys again. I’m not one to hold a grudge.
