WESTERN AUSTRALIA

Paradise found





Here I am, arrived in Western Australia a couple of days ago. Winter here, of course, and although a hell of a lot cooler to run in than Japan right now it's very pleasant, about 18 to 20 degrees during the day, not at all cold. Starting to build mileage and get on top of my injuries. I have confidence that I can be over this by the end of the month.

Now only problem is to control my weight but that's not going to be easy. Tonight I ate half a leg of lamb with gravy, roast potatoes, pumpkin and peas! This is surely God's country so you can't blame me for taking part in what is has to offer! Can you?

  2. Hey Scootty just look out for those sharks as I hear they would be more than happy to liberate a few pounds of fat from your body!
    Glad to hear your getting back into injury free running, way to go :0]

  3. I figure that the whole point of running is to be able to eat - so eat away then run, run, run!

  7. Lucky bastard. Hope all that surfing has cured your throbbing bum. Can't be all that pleasant if you're in a full wetty, or is that to scare off the sharks? Jealous already - holidays are addictive.
