Gambolling With The Galahs

The Galahs weren't seen until near the top end of Phillip Avenue. But there were plenty of them and they were feeding on the ground.

A couple of girls/young ladies had cycled to the Antill St entry and walked up and down Mt Majura. While there were several ladies walking their dogs in the area.

The run today was the 10km Vets Handicap, Majura Nature Park course, over 10km, out behind the houses in Hackett, for 2.5km, turning up the hill that goes east over the saddle, but only travelling for about 300 metres before turning south and joining the lower Mt Ainslie track past the water tower, and returning to Phillip Ave, via a lower track, returning to the start/finish in a little over 64 minutes.

I tried to keep to the right hand side of the track on the way out and the left hand side on the return run. Felt good all the way at that pace, and had plenty of time to look around and notice the delights of the nature aprk.

I was intending to have a different run, but found that MotionBased only allows me to view the most recent runs, so when I loaded Majura Nature Park from last year, it said it was too old.

Thus the reason for the run was to get a "Forerunner Man" map of the area.


Until next time.
