Monday training - Alan, Andrew, Bronwyn, Caroline, Christopher, Ewen, me, Jodie, Joel, Katie, Ken, Miranda, Neil, Rachelle, Tim, Yasmina, Yelena, Yili & Zac ran a session of 935ms with a 935m jog which may have included a dozen push-ups or dips on the jog lap. It seemed cool and dark, fortunately we were on the sheltered side of Parliament House this time.

There will be just one more Monday of this training next week; we will still meet at 5:30pm despite it being a public holiday, again, just Canberra.

I am still in the process of deciding where to go for our training group dinner the following Monday, 4 May.

Marathon update - Ruth won her age group in the AMA championships. Now I know why she didn't come to Adelaide for track nationals; the Australian gold medal was waiting for her back home!

Song of the week. "Somewhere Only We Know", by Keane. On my trip away, listening to all my favourite music, I realised just how keen I was on Keane. And the following video of “Somewhere Only We Know” was played on Rage last Saturday morning, even though it is the first track off their first album, recorded five years ago. Can't embed it, the link is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmXY2MSrguE

Dickson: Don't forget, training at Dickson, on the grass track, under lights, begins this Thursday.
