Time for a change from the Random Thoughts!  Just another way of being Random.

Have finished my week of Night Shift this morning!  None for two months now, as I will be on leave for the next one and then a week at Wagga for the following one!  Good luck not good planning! 

Rusty developed Kennel Cough ( upper respiratory infection during the week).  Funny when he is fully immunised and hasnt really been in cotnact with other dogs! But guess airborne can do it!  He slept inside the first night to be warmer, but he’s not really an inside dog now and for all concerned, he is now sleeping back outside!  He now has an extra blanket and a dog coat to keep him a biut warmer!  I think he is slowly getting better -  coughing less anyway!

Training has been a bit slack this week, but am ramping it up tomorrow.  Doing 8kms tomorrow, a lap of the Lake on Sunday and 10 miles on Monday!  Got the LBG 20 mile next weekend, which will be good!

Going to the bank this afternoon to submit all the paperwork for the loan!  The bank can get the valuation done and give the final approval!  Yehhhhhh!

Was very excited to get the book “King of the Peds”by PS Marshall yesterday. Tells the true story of the Pedestrians in the 1800s.  Started reading it last night and its very interesting!  Me – I need to get off my backside and start putting the history of Australian ultra running on paper!  Perfect last chapter from last weekend when Martin Fryer ran 433.6km at the Surgere 48hr! Awesome performance!
