Wow, life has been hectic!!
My days have centred around generally a 7am start at the new house to convene with the builders and then either going for a run or immediately starting work hoping for an evening run.
As Seagull points out, the Turkey Trot was a mixed success event for me, ran pretty well in warm conditions, navigated pretty well but finished in a clump of 4 runners (first was a long way in front) and due to some of the timing associated with the event (major road crossings) even though I crossed the line 3rd probably 2 seconds behind 2nd place, I ended up 4th after time adjustments. Yes in reviewing my routes (and nav mistakes) I could and should have covered this difference but I am sure the others could say the same as the 4 of us leapfrogged throughout the race. End result was pretty much a half marathon distance, with navigation and bush running challenges in just over 2 hours, not too bad! (bring on Summer Series!!!)
Backed up for a tempo run last night (close to a PB) and then a MLR run this morning so am mostly still on track despite temporarily being a builders labourer!!
The new house has already had a massive transformation with more to come, but as always a few unexpected surprises lurk to challenge you....
So, the campaign summary is day 14, 11 days of running for a total of 166km

You're going well Dave. The upper body strength from laboring isn't doing you any harm!
Will I be seeing the shack on 'Grand Designs'?
