The time in Perth at the moment is 10.57pm. I woke this morning , as did Mrs Wombat at 5.40am. No, not to go for a run but to take the little wombats and 2 of their mates water skiing. The dam is a good 2 hours drive and we wanted to make a day of it. At the present time gone are the days when I would get up to run at 4am in the morning because I had to travel at 6am. (did that a few times as have many of you I bet)As I am the only one with a skippers ticket it also meant that I drove the boat all day too. We eventually arrived at the dam by 9.45am skied all day, packed up and drove home to come in the drive way, after getting a meal in Pinjarra, at roughly 9.45pm.
At this point I unpacked the boat and when everyone went to bed at 10.10pm I went for a run. Mind you tonight was a token gesture of 4 miles run in 30 minutes so a tad over the 7min miles pace by my reckoning. Still I was very happy as a little part of me was putting up the arguments of it being too late to run and I could leave it tomorrow. The full moon made visibility easier and the evening was an absolute gem. Stirred up a few dogs running past properties at this hour and I wonder how many thought foxes were at the chickens.
Sitting her with my cuppa tea typing this I am feeling pretty stoked that I got the run on the board as it means I can move another step closer to reaching my goal...
As for me? Well I am going to crash for some well earned rest. Tomorrow brings another day of exercise and greeting the day.
Barrel on wombats....
:-) well done!
