Hey, look! Eileen‘s in a fancy scientist magazine! (From the URL, I actually read it as “Micro Be” magazine. Durrrr.)

Snook, I got two words for you: Breakfast. Degustation.
Week 20
It’s turned out to be an eventful week for my running non-career. After a last gentle 5K run in the taper, there was the debacle of the Half-Marathon DNF. That forced me to re-assess my race plans for the rest of the year. There’s no way I can think about a marathon right now, and I’d even put a half-marathon on hold until I can finally get my right foot back to 100%. Then, last night we booked our plane tickets home to visit my family in July/August… and I only just realised I am going to miss both the Bay Run AND the City 2 Surf. Those two are pretty much the highlight of winter running in Sydney. I’m going to have to motivate myself without the pressure of an event for the next few months, it seems. On the plus side, I’ve done two training sessions at Spudds this week and I’m kicking some ass. I think this cross-training is going to become a much more important part of my fitness plan now that I know I need to give my foot a rest.
May 14: 5.09km
May 16: 12.48km
Total this week: 17.57km (11mi)
Total in 2010: 422.29km (264mi)
I’m still ahead of the pace I need to meet my goal of running 1000km in 2010…
Wow! One of my knitting buddies features in this new Virgin Blue TV commercial. That’s the Inner City group’s own Lee (aka “FredAStep”) on Ravelry. Congratulations, Lee!

I like mochi. I wonder if I’d like warabi mochi. Sydney foodies: anybody know where I can find warabimochiko and kinako?
