A Great Week for Walking

It has been a wonderful week weather wise for the first week of the school holidays. I managed to walk over 100km for the first nine days of the holiday break. Two walks of significance were on Monday when I did the Home - Logan Park - Mt Cargill - Roseneath - Home loop and on Friday I walked up Stuart Street and Taieri Road from the Hocken Building. On the way back to my car I went along Helensburgh Road - Balmacewen Road - Driver's Road - Frederick Street.

On Saturday morning Ruth, Craig and I assisted the Caversham Club with marshalling at the National Road Relays. We stsrted off at the Outram Hotel at 8am and marshalled from 9.30am. It was not the most pleasant of experiences as we had to marshall for two legs which meant we did not finish until 1pm. As one of the roads we controlled was closed we had hassles with people wanting to go down the road. However as I had been in a number of walking races it was my turn to do my bit.
