Pilates after a post-midnight finish. Felt more awake at the start than I thought I might, probably because I rode rather than drove there (recognising among other things that it certainly wouldn't be any easier to compete with the construction workers for a park at 8 than it is at 7). Not too bad a session although felt a bit of soreness in my right calf at times, this vanished afterwards though.

I liked this morning's playlist and passed on my compliments to whoever chose it, but it turned out that the 'whoever' was a Spotify algorithm.

A lunchtime run from home, rare these days, a lot more common in 2020 and 2021 and thus being vaguely discomfiting (there's enough remnants of those times that I still get triggered when someone - they still exist, although few in politics or the mainstream media take any notice of them these days - advocates bringing back Covid restrictions). Nice day for it though, and not too bad as lunchtime runs go.

The target for this was recompleting Bellfield after a new street appeared in the development where Banksia Secondary College used to be. This loop has quite a bit on paths along the creek (took the direct steep route out of the creek for the first time in a while, and probably the last in a while because it is usually too slippery to use in winter), and also back through the west side of Ivanhoe.
