It may have been a bit quiet here on the News front, but it's full steam ahead behind the scenes. The paperwork train has started, and all the important roles allocated to the usual suspects, and some unusual ones as well.
Leaving behind dodgy metaphors for a moment, the weather has been amazing for training here lately. Clear skies, no wind, 18 degrees... can't really ask for more in paradise. Unless we asked not to have to go to work on days like these :-)
But the main news items are that:
1. Steven Bradbury's flights to Flinders have been booked (yay!), and
2. the new timing system (the same as used by Parkruns worldwide) has been ordered and will be on the island ready for testing by us in July. We're hoping this will be the magic solution to our timing and recording dilemmas!
Only three and a half months to go now. We'll be posting suggestions for training over the coming weeks. But I'm going to keep taking advantage of this glorious Autumn "I'm pretending I'm Summer" weather.
One foot in front of the other; repeat.
- Mel :-)
