Back in Sydney..

Tuesday, 3 October 2017

The last day of the carnival was good fun. Jett and I got drafted into relay teams but neither of our teams were in the top 3 - we both had good runs through the tricky terrain which was a nice way to finish up the carnival. Unfortunately I rolled my ankle in a hole with about 1k to go on my course. I finished the course but it's now pretty sore so I'm limping around and can't go for my usual favourite runs around Lane Cove.

Jon had another clean run and Zali also ran well - so they both got their relay teams some more medals. I was particularly happy for Zali's team mates as they had both missed out on being on the schools relay team - so it was awesome to see them up on the podium with great big smiles.

 

After a long day at the event (not helped by getting up at 6pm on Daylight Saving's morning) Jett and I drove back to Sydney, stopping in Mt Victoria to see the Marshes luxury holiday home, then follow them the rest of the way home to Lane Cove.

 

Jon and Zali were staying on the school bus then at the airport hotel where we would pick them up the next day. Zali was looking forward to a night in a room with a door!
