Brisbane to Sydney Opera House (virtual run)

I finally got a run in yesterday.  It had been almost a week.  It was a week of rain here in Brisbane.  A week of rain and 3 days of flooding.  Sometimes when you live in the tropics the rain starts and it just wont stop.  There were trees and branches all over the sidewalks and the running paths.  4 people have been killed as a result of the rain and flooding.  At home, we were without power for over 52 hours.  Lots of takeaway food :(

After work I got in a 5k run.  It was an OK run.  The park that I run in had flooded.  So after the water receded it left mud and branches strewn around and the smell.  My god the smell at certain parts was revolting.  I work near a floodplain so what can one expect.

I managed to get in 94ks this month.  I was hoping to get closer to 100ks but the weather put a stop to that.  It is raining again today but so far it is just spitting.  I'm hoping by 4 pm I'll be able to get in another 4k or 5k run in.  Fingers crossed.

I started a new blog.  This one is about books that I am reading.  You can find the blog here.
