Easy around the Bay

Glorious dry cloudless morning in Sydney and extra special around the Bay. Easy cruise with Silver Fox - slow enough to comfortably discuss life. A slightly later start than usual so around the Timbrell stretch the black sky was turning to purple with a hint of pink - no wind and the water was mirrow flat - oh where was I .. yes that right the run with Silver Fox.

No watch - no pace - no pressure - a great way to finish the week and a wind down for the marathon on Sunday. At the end wished him well with the birth of #2 Foxette in a few days and he wished me well for the run.

We started our runs together one Saturday morning in December - as passing runners only - but that has developed into firm friends and it has been a pleasure to share many runs with him since. Plans to continue subject to family commitments.

It really was a great start to the day and I enjoyed your company as always. Some of those hit outs leading into Canberra were light on chat but very high on quality. Best wishes for sunday and look forward to catching up again soon.

Thanks for the kind words mate.
