Run 1:01:00 [3] 11.2 km (5:27 / km)
Run on a soon-to-be-former regular Saturday scene, along the Yarra Flats to Wilsons Reserve then back up through Ivanhoe (with some meanderings). Felt like the first more-or-less normal run for a couple of weeks; not ridiculously weak uphill and no coughing outbursts. Still not exactly stellar but I'll take it as another sign of progress.
As most of you will know by now, this was only the prelude to the day's activities, and the news is good: although the price ended up being a bit higher than I would have hoped for, I am now (or rather will be once the settlement happens) the owner of a new abode in Fairfield. It's a terrific place for what I want out of it and I'm definitely looking forward to moving there, especially as I had friendly conversations with more neighbours in five minutes than I think I've managed in five years at my current address. The only slight disappointment expressed was by my local state MP (who will be losing my vote, though probably not my campaigning involvement as I'm not exactly needed in the ultra-safe Batman), and the kids in the street who were hoping that I might bring some of my own with me.
