Run from the top of Beleura Hill, down to Mornington and back along some winding streets. I ran up all the hills (big ones) without stopping. I'd only just started when a young woman runner. with long blond hair and wearing scarcely more than a bikini, caught up with me and insisted on running with me for a while and chatting, before promoting her sports shop (with discounts for people like me, of course).

C • a little long? 3

I planned to go to Sprint into Spring and then down to Mornington to visit my sister. But l was a bit early, so detoured into Frankston, and then into the Subaru car yard. I didn't make it to orienteering and came out about 2 hours later with a signed contract for a newish (demo model, with 3000km on the clock) white Subaru XV. Bye bye to the elephant!

C • Once a Subi girl... 4

Run around Blackburn lake and creeklands. It was a glorious morning - the sun was shining, birds were singing, frogs croaking, the scent of freshly washed flowers was in the air and l felt great.

Street O at Jordanville. I felt pretty sluggish the whole way (l'm not good at running in the evening) although had a rest when l was held up by train at one crossing. I stayed to collect controls afterwards, whereupon l noted the area seemed a little more seedy than l noticed in the event, with lots of people in the vicinity of the controls l was collecting. Attendance numbers seemed a little down tonight.
