Another tready session in the bank

40 mins, 8k's @ 5:10 mins/km

Another easy paced hitout at fitness first this morning at about 11.3 kms/hr. Little discomfort in the shins and next week I'll be gradually working the tready speed up to 12kms/hr. When I've run discomfort free for a few weeks, I'll slowly ease the tready speed up a little faster than 12kms/hr.

Tuesday night poker was an interesting experience. As far as the Broncos Leagues Club was concerned we were playing for chips, with no money exhanging hands. In actuality, all seven blokes had kicked in $10, with the winner to take all. I was the third man to run out of chips after a run of bad hands depleted my stakes as the big blind bets continued to increase. Prior to that however, I had played good solid poker and was happy with my performance. I might have to enter a poker tournament at the Casino one day!!

Something else I'll have to do one day is run the PWC Cool Night Classic of 5.13k from the QUT amphitheatre over the Goodwill and Story Bridges, finishing under Michael's. I wathced it for the first time with MJ last night and was really surprised with the large corporate turnout that saw around 3000 competitors - perhaps more. It's moment's like those that I get frustrated knowing that I could be running and finishing in the top twenty.
