Run 1:02:00 [3] 11.5 km (5:23 / km)
First session of 2015, not a particularly good one. As is the case for many people on this day, I was coming off less sleep than would have been optimal, which may have contributed to a general sense of sluggishness. Also a few hamstring twinges although still better than the weekend.
First weather station visit of the year: probably my most frequently visited one, the automatic one at the back of Viewbank (which is the closest one to where I am). Not sure what inroads (if any) I'll make into my list of 17 unvisited Australian sites this year - as noted earlier, all the easy ones are done now. Thinking 2017 (with WMOC in NZ rather than in Europe, and no IOF Congress) might be the year for another major outback Australian trip, though a lot of things could happen between now and 2017.
Heading to Tasmania on the boat tonight. Had expected to encounter a few familiar faces on this but most of those I've talked to so far are going earlier or later.
One 2014 'award' I left off the list I posted last night: most (least?) photogenic injury suffered. I had a few good ones last year in that department. An honourable mention goes to the cut knee (and consequent ample quantities of blood) in the NAOC long, but the winner is my backside-plant at Radford during the Canberra sprint series in January, which produced a very purple bruise the size of a dinner plate on said buttock. There are photos of the former online, but not the latter.
