Run 48:00 [3] *** 9.2 km (5:13 / km)
spiked:20/22c
Fitness test run at the Tuesday night street-O at Kensington, one of the more interesting areas out there. (Having committed to this meant missing the last few overs of the Test, though as it turned out I didn't miss much). Lots of route choice options and I didn't get the best of them, but reasonably happy with the way the run went - a few minor twinges in various places but definitely better than the weekend. Will see how going harder tomorrow works out.
Last time the nationals were in Queensland, which is more than six years ago, there was a story in the news about one Ron Owen, a (then) Gympie councillor and nationally notorious firearms enthusiast, being ordered to apologise to the (probably minuscule) homosexual community of Gympie following an anti-vilification case. He's spent the last six years going as far as the High Court trying to avoid having to deliver said apology (one wonders who's been paying the legal bills, although the fact that one of his legal representatives is a former staffer for the current Queensland Attorney-General may offer a hint), and was in the news again yesterday for launching a (verbal) attack of the "what's she doing out of the kitchen" variety on the head of the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal which was responsible for the apology order in the first place. We await developments.
(The tribunal did dismiss another complaint, finding that he could not be held responsible for a bumper sticker that read “The only right gays have is the right to die”, because the car was registered in someone else's name, presumably his wife's).
