Run 1:08:00 [3] 13.0 km (5:14 / km)
Very much in taper mode now; this is the longest I'll do this week before the weekend. Had the usual grinding start but started to get into it reasonably well as I headed up the Merri Creek from Clifton Hill (especially getting into the nice bushy section on the west side north of Normanby), and going reasonably smoothly in the second half. If I feel as I did at the end of today when I'm 1.08 in on Saturday I'll definitely regard it as a decent start.
We're apparently now supposed to refer to the people who've been causing us grief for months (if not years) as "active stakeholders", a euphemism well up there in the class of "the victim was well-known to police". It also reminded me of a job ad I once saw in the Economist - you get some interesting job ads in the Economist - for an outfit called the Council for Responsible Jewellery Practices (I presume their purpose was to stop African warlords from financing their activities by selling diamonds), which said that the successful candidate would have to work in a "complex multi-stakeholder environment". I assume that this is another way of saying "war zone".
