Run (Shuffle) 59:00 [3] 6.92 km (8:32 / km)
(injured)
Saturday morning orienteering training run at Balwyn (near Maranoa Gardens). I shuffled my way around the course (half run /half walk) - without too much discomfort. I don't usually like novelty events but this one was fun - a card game of 'pig'. Each person was given 4 cards and, as they passed each other orienteer, had to swap a card each time, with the aim of getting 4 of the one type (e.g. 4 Queens). The controls were marked as little snouts on the map and all the map instructions were written in 'pig-theme' with a substantial collection of pig jokes. Quite entertaining. The organiser (Geoff)'s little brain must have been running overtime! I didn't see many others, but the new scenery, map and cards kept my mind off my injuries.
Observation for the week - How odd it is that I have really enjoyed going to and being at work this week. I think it is something to do with not having to be there. I only did 36 hours this week, but the flexible hours and project work really suit me.
