Running 1:21:00 [3] 14.6 km (5:33 / km) +450m 4:48 / km

The TRR overseas run on Maggie Island before heading back home for the air show on the Strand where some of the 70,000 spectators were sat on the grass outside my flat. Or at least they were until the police forced them to move because they were sat underneath a tree and were worried about litigation in case some ambulance chaser got hit by a falling coconut. The world's gone mad. I offered to supply them all with pots, pans and various other kitchen utensils to use as makeshift helmets in order to protect themselves from this perilous health and safety emergency situation but they weren't impressed. I guess that my colander didn't meet their stringent safety standards.

Running 1:50:00 [3] 16.5 km (6:40 / km) +600m 5:38 / km

Hill run from JCU around Mount Stuart and the army land. Following recent terrorist scares the government have responded by increasing military security and building an additional barrier at the main entrance to the army barracks. Fortunately they have overlooked the single-strand wire fence which encloses the remainder of the army land boundary. Although I may pass as a squaddie, I would have expected that during one of the thirtyish times we have trespassed this year the guy that I run with, who looks like a cross between Crocodile Dundee and Steve Irwin, would arouse some suspicion.

I'm disappointed since I'd like to find out whether the cardinal rule of Dark Peak trespassing (when caught give your name and address as Tim Tett of 68 Roebuck Road) still works down under.

Note
(rest day)

Travelling back home from the Whitsundays, stopping only to admire the giant mango at the side of the road. I wish I'd been at the Bowen council meeting when they decided that it would be a good idea to invest the tax payers money in giant fruit:

- First item on the agenda is to decide what to build on this barren stretch of highway in the middle of nowhere.
- How about a servo for the motorists eh?
- Strewth, that's a crazy suggestion ya flamin' galah.
- OK then, I've got a ripper idea, what about a cafe or a bottle-O eh?
- Nah, strike a light.
- Hang on, I've got it, what about a giant 30 foot high wooden mango eh?
- Crikey, you beaut, that's a fair dinkum bonza idea.

I was somewhat less impressed with the giant spider I found in my flat when we got back home.

Got talked into waking up at early-O-clock for the club race at Fairfield Waters. I sure as hell won't be making that mistake again. It's still chuffing hot at 6am so what's the point? Struggled round behind all the over 60's for the free McDonald's at the finish.
