Flooding!

On today?s stage where I hugely enjoyed the competent crewing of Dirk Thys
- a Belgian ultra runner from Adelaide (!), I had some serious rain:

Near Murray Bridge the police for a while stopped the traffic until the
water and mud was under control!

It fitted well in with my lunch stop, though :-)

A highlight was that I have now received my next shipment of Asics gel
Kayano running shoes from my equipment sponsor, the Danish branch of
Asics ! THANKS :-))


11. December running tip:

- Always remember to shift your running shoes before they are fully worn
out; because that will be where you are most likely to get injuries from
minimized shock absorption in the shoe.

A way to prolong the "life" of your running shoe is to shift between 2
pairs!
That way each pair will have a chance to regain their full shock
absorption quality before the next session.
