Pool running 45:00 [3] 0.7 km (1:04:17 / km)
Decided on a pool running session rather than a swim as the elbow is bruised and swollen up a bit. Generally a pretty good session and no issues with the knee - also not unpleasant conditions (certainly compared to what Friday would have been like).
The person who had a Labor sign on their balcony overlooking the pool during the federal campaign is at it again for the state one. Much as I'd like to be able to support Richard Wynne (unlike one or two others under threat from the Greens who won't be missed), he's not in my electorate.
Politics in a more distant land also came to my attention today, in the form of one Art Robinson, running as a Republican for a Congressional seat in Oregon. He's (in)famous in the climate world for being behind the Oregon Petition, an internet statement "signed" by 31,000 "scientists" (whose ranks include numerous cats and dogs, and Ginger Spice) denying the existence of man-made global warming. That wasn't what got our attention, though; rather it was a statement accusing his opponent of sending money to a tax haven, New Zealand. I'm sure that the idea that New Zealand is a tax haven will come as news to the New Zealanders.
